Feature Request - SolarWinds API should support OAUTH2 and not just basic auth.

Cross posting from Thwack for visibility https://thwack.solarwinds.com/discussion/125327/solarwinds-api-should-support-oauth2-and-bearer-token-and-not-just-basic-auth?utm_source=community-search&utm_medium=organic-search&utm_term=token

Currently the SolarWinds API supports Basic Auth. There ought to be options to configure and use OATH2 and/or Bearer/Token. Microsoft is deprecating Basic Auth currently, leaving the SolarWinds API in a less than desirable position. The SolarWinds API monitoring supports multiple authentication methods, so why can't the actual SolarWinds API?

Also would like this.

Fully agree! People want modern ways of API Authentication.

I'm going to split this out into two Issues - there's an open draft PR that would fix the Oauth aspect of this #415
