For service-to-service scenarios, you can protect the called API app by using Azure Active Directory, and provide an AAD service principal authorization token when you call the API app. You can request the token by providing the client ID and client secret from the AAD application. No special Azure-only code is required, such as used to be true for handling the Mobile Services Zumo token. An example of this scenario using ASP.NET API apps is covered by the tutorial [Service principal authentication for API Apps](app-service-api-dotnet-service-principal-auth.md).

If you want to handle a service-to-service scenario without using App Service authentication, you can use client certificates or basic authentication. For information about client certificates in Azure, see [How To Configure TLS Mutual Authentication for Web Apps](../app-service-web/app-service-web-configure-tls-mutual-auth.md).
