#### Authentication

Most endpoints support optional authentication using Decentraland's signed fetch mechanism. Authenticated requests provide access to:

* Private user lists and favorites
* Personalized recommendations
* User-specific data and permissions

Authentication uses the **SignedFetch** scheme (decentraland-crypto-middleware) with metadata validation following [ADR-44](http://adr.decentraland.org/adr/ADR-44). Required endpoints clearly indicate authentication in their documentation.
