    To authenticate and authorize access to the Coinbase Pro API documentation, you should follow the OAuth 2.0 authentication protocol. This protocol allows you to securely obtain an access token, which you can then use to make API requests. The Coinbase Pro API documentation provides detailed instructions on how to implement OAuth 2.0 authentication in your application. Make sure to follow the recommended best practices to ensure the security of your API access.
