For example I cannot invoke [[ https://we.phorge.it/conduit/method/diffusion.tagsquery/ | diffusion.tagsquery ]] without authentication, even though I can access [[ https://we.phorge.it/source/phorge/tags/master/ | equivalent pages ]] through the web interface. This encourages scraping, which consumes more server resources than a simple API call.

For example the [[ /conduit/method/diffusion.tagsquery/ | diffusion.tagsquery ]] method cannot be invoked without authentication, even though the logged-out user can access [[ https://we.phorge.it/source/phorge/tags/master/ | equivalent pages ]] through the web interface. This encourages scraping, which consumes more server resources than a simple API call. The class @{class:ConduitAPIMethod} has the function `shouldRequireAuthentication`. Setting it to `false` on `view`-only API methods can allow public API access.
