Auth providers enable users to seamlessly and securely allow Arcade tools to access their data.
Arcade has several auth providers available in the Arcade Cloud Platform so you don't have to configure your own. However, using Arcade's auth providers means that your users will see the Arcade brand (name and logo) on the auth screen and your authentications will share any rate limits from those providers with other Arcade customers.
It can be useful to configure your own auth provider for the following reasons:
- You want to use your own brand on the auth screen
- You want to isolate your rate limits from other Arcade customers
- You want to use a service that Arcade [does not have a built-in auth provider for](/references/auth-providers/oauth2)
After adding an auth provider used by an Arcade tool, executing the tool will automatically use your auth provider. Even in the Arcade Cloud Platform, your auth provider will take precedence over the arcade-provided auth provider.
Adding multiple providers of the same type, not including the arcade-provided ones, can cause Arcade's tool authorization to fail, see [Using multiple providers of the same type](#using-multiple-providers-of-the-same-type) for more information.
