Outbound Authentication #2435

Hi team,

I was going through the https://cap.cloud.sap/docs/guides/security/remote-authentication to help a customer understand some auth topics in CAP applications, and I noticed something confusing.

Right at the beginning, the documentation says:
"Use the toggle in the title bar or press v to switch."

This made me think I could switch between Node.js and Java versions, but when I tried to follow along, I realized all the examples are Java-specific. Throughout the entire guide, I'm seeing:

  • application.yaml files (Spring Boot config)
  • References to pom.xml
  • Java paths like /srv/src/main/resources/
  • Java sample apps (xflights-java, xtravels-java)

As a Node.js developer trying to explain this to a customer, I got a bit lost because I expected to see package.json configurations, Node.js code examples, or at least some guidance on how to achieve the same thing in a Node.js project.

I'm not sure if the Node.js version is coming soon or if this guide is meant to be Java-only, but the toggle statement at the top is definitely confusing. It would be really helpful to either have the Node.js examples added or just clarify upfront that this particular guide is for Java projects.

I am pasting a screenshot.

Thanks for all the great work on the documentation.

Kind regards,
Nata.
