Doubt about access control

I’m looking to make an application Android which achieves CRUD in a database MYSQL.

I’ve researched that the way to do this is by using a Webservice.

I’m new in this area but I’ve done a simple via PHP in REST and been researching about them. However, so far I have not seen a Webservice that has access authorization system as a common database. Ie, anyone accessing my webservice address will have access to any information in my database.

I wonder if there is one that uses some security system not to authorize improper access that is more geared to the medium I’m using, in this case Android.

Edit: After reading the comments and searching and searching, I am thinking of creating a Control Access system myself. It is recommended or not?

    see firebases if it helps you

  • Many web applications provide services using tokens for authentication. For example https://www.themoviedb.org/. You can use ready-made solutions such as: https://jwt.io/

  • Hello Icaro, I don’t know how to mention you here but the firebase you’re talking about is the Google service? Mbecker, I’m taking a look at the link you passed.

  • Another thing I don’t understand is that most people who use external databases need access control for it, but for such a popular need, it seems that they are lacking information on the net or I am looking all wrong.
