Hey there :) Co-maintainer here and available to answer all your questions.

Bringing this to v2 was a big one year effort with lots of community contributions and we are excited to finally be able to show it to the world!

Is this library the way to go when I have the following needs? 1. Login to SaaS via website and later use an access token to authorize against a graphql api? 2. Login programmatically so an access token can be retrieved and used for REST queries. 3. Does (2) work if the client is a pure oauth2 client (not an oidc client)? 4. Is the library recommended in a tenant based SaaS (like MS Azure)?

Does Hydra integrate with nginx or envoy external authorization? If so, is there a good example you could share?

I’ve relied on oauth2proxy with Dex as an oidc issuer for this purpose for years. This works but I’m trying to understand if Ory is an advancement in functionality.

Absolutely, Ory Hydra supports basic OAuth2 standards like OAuth2 Introspection - if the technology supports these standards then it is compatible!
