Authentication.json contains the settings for enabling the authentication feature ("PowerServer:EnableAuthentication") and specifying the address of the authentication server ("Authentication:Authority"). The PowerServer Web APIs will validate the token against the authentication server; and if validation is successful, data will be obtained from the database.
The "PowerServer:EnableAuthentication" setting is set to true by default. Setting it to false will turn off the authentication feature.
The "Authentication:Authority" setting is for specifying the Issuer URI of authorization server. See the next section for more details.
