If your data source uses the same OAuth provider as Grafana itself, for example using [Generic OAuth Authentication]({{< relref "../../auth/generic-oauth.md" >}}), your data source plugin can reuse the access token for the logged-in Grafana user.
To allow Grafana to pass the access token to the plugin, the user needs to enable **Forward OAuth Identity** on the data source configuration page. This tells Grafana to pass the token to the plugin in a Authorization header. Note that your plugin needs to use the [DataSourceHttpSettings]({{< relref "https://developers.grafana.com/ui/latest/index.html?path=/story/data-source-datasourcehttpsettings--basic" >}}) component in the configuration editor to expose the setting for your data source plugin.

The Authorization header is available on the `DataQuery` object on the query data request in your backend data source.
