    Securing your SPARQL Endpoint via OAuth

    SPARQL endpoints are easy for random visitors to accidentally overload. Virtuoso allows you to secure your SPARQL endpoint against such abuses in various ways, including OAuth.

    Sample scenario

    The following sample scenario demonstrates the OAuth keys and Protected SPARQL Endpoint features of the Virtuoso Auth UI:

    1. Download and install the conductor_dav.vad and ods_framework_dav.vad (commercial) or ods_framework_dav.vad (open source) packages.
    2. Go to http://<cname>:<port>/conductor, where <cname>:<port> are replaced by your local server values.
    3. Log in as user "dba" or another user with DBA privileges
    4. Go to System Admin-> User Accounts:



    5. Click "Create New Account":



    6. In the presented form enter respectively:
      • Account name, for ex:demo1; enter password and then confirm it;
      • User type: SQL/ODBC and WebDAV?
      • Account role: SPARQL_UPDATE



    7. Click "Save".
