Hi Swithun This sounds related to the issues raised by https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/FCREPO-748
If I understand you correctly, you want to be able to perform authentication against an external source of datastream content when ingesting. Is this for ingesting external content into Fedora as inline XML or as managed content? Please feel free to add comments to the above JIRA issue.
