+==== Step 5 Use Authentication
+Optionally if you have enabled authentication on a server there are 3
+different ways to authorize a client.
+
+Use basic authentication:

+$ java -jar target/scdfdsl-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar \
+  --spring.cloud.dataflow.client.authentication.basic.username=user \
+  --spring.cloud.dataflow.client.authentication.basic.password=password

+----
+$ java -jar target/scdfdsl-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar \
+  --spring.cloud.dataflow.client.authentication.client-id=dataflow \
+  --spring.cloud.dataflow.client.authentication.client-secret=secret \

+  --spring.cloud.dataflow.client.authentication.scope=dataflow.create,dataflow.deploy,dataflow.destroy,dataflow.manage,dataflow.modify,dataflow.schedule,dataflow.view

+  --spring.cloud.dataflow.client.authentication.access-token=849228ed663e450ab5051c998eb71a4a

+[source,bash,options="nowrap"]
