Ory Community

I'm not very expert here but I think you are referring to <https://www.ory.sh/kratos/docs/self-service/hooks|Hooks>

I think the answer is just "yes" - Hydra and/or Kratos for issuing access credentials, and Oathkeeper in front of the APIs to guard them

<@U02JEPL0E2C>  you would need to expain what part of the Ory stack you plan to use, and perhaps explain your deployment scenario. Would you use Ory Cloud (the best place to run Ory) or run some private instance yourself ?
