{% content-ref url="/pages/-Mkfm\_2lRdcUMWUn6YVF" %}
[1. Verify access token API using Basic Authentication](/feature-guides/authentication/token-validation-api/integration-steps/1.-obtaining-resource-server-or-sp-access-token.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

{% content-ref url="/pages/-MkfseXFX6\_mCOqkXloX" %}
[2. Obtaining Authenticated User Information from the Access Token](/feature-guides/authentication/token-validation-api/integration-steps/2.-verifying-access-token-api.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

**Note:** In case if SP is using introspect API with older version, they need to use the new API. Basically, in old version two API’s are called to introspect the token. However, in new version it can be done by using single API as below using Basic Authentication.
