Connect general Mediawiki Authentication and Wikimedia Enterprise for a streamlined free / paid api experience
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Problem: Wikimedia Enterprise, in the spirit of building for beta, has built a separate and secure authentication system. However, the experience of using WME's suite with the standard authentication as part of the API Gateway project is separate and creates a confusing user experience.

Solution: Wikimedia Enterprise to adopt the mediawiki (?) authentication as it's first auth layer to make switching between tools seamless
