> Fineract supports authentication either using Basic auth or Oauth. The initial authentication is done using the endpoints described at [https://demo.openmf.org/api-docs/apiLive.htm#authentication_basicauth] and [https://demo.openmf.org/api-docs/apiLive.htm#authentication_oauth] 
> Both rely on passing the username and password as URL query parameters.
> Ex, the endpoint for /authentication is 
> POST  : [https://localhost:8443/fineract-provider/api/v1/authentication?username=mifos&password=password&tenantIdentifier=default]
>  
> We would want to change the same to
> POST [https://localhost:8443/fineract-provider/api/v1/authentication?tenantIdentifier=default]
> and pass the username and password as apart of the post body in json format.
> Ex:
> {code:java}
> {
> "username":"mifos",
> "password":"password"
> }{code}
>  
> After making this change, the APIdocs and integration test cases would have to be updated accordingly
