In this chapter, we gained knowledge of various types of authentication like Basic authentication, Digest authentication, Kerberos authentication, OAuth 1.0 authentication and OAuth 2.0 authentication which are supported by Requests. Later, we got an idea of how to use various types of authentications and the flows of the process. We also learned to use our own custom authentication and gained the knowledge of making different authentications work with Requests and the ways to use them with Requests.

In the next chapter, we will be getting to know all about a handy module, HTTPretty.
