Why not just stick with the signed request? Feels simpler!

I vaguely recall something about using Apex classes for registration handlers, but I'm not confident if that's the right approach for this integration.

I feel like the Authorization Providers could be relevant here, especially since they let external apps authenticate against Salesforce.

I think the Canvas OAuth flow might be a good option since it allows for secure authentication, but I need to double-check how it works with third-party apps.

I remember studying about SAML and how it can be used for single sign-on, but I'm not entirely sure if it's the best fit for this scenario.

I think I remember that dbowner might be too much for regular access. Maybe datareader and datawriter are better?

Okay, I think I've got it. Control information directly controls an elementary process, while influence information just affects it. I'll go with option C.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about the service-orientation principles and how they relate to the service contract. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I hear the security team is also considering a good old-fashioned handshake as an authentication method. You know, for that personal touch.

Maybe we should just tell the third-party app to use the 'password123' login credentials. That's secure, right?

Wait, so we can't just use a signed request from Salesforce? That's like the easiest option! What's the point of having all these fancy authentication methods if a simple signed request won't work?

Creating a registration handler Apex class? Sounds like a lot of custom code just to authenticate the app. I'd rather go with a more standard solution like SAML or OAuth.
