# Auth-Basic Service
The oCIS Auth Basic service provides basic authentication for those clients who cannot handle OIDC. This is a rare case, is usually not necessary and mainly used for tests or development.
The oCIS Auth Basic service provides basic authentication for those clients who cannot handle OpenID Connect. This should only be enabled for tests and development.
The `auth-basic` service is responsible for validating authentication of incoming requests. To do so, it will use the configured `auth manager`, see the `Auth Managers` section. Only HTTP basic auth requests to ocis will involve the `auth-basic` service.
