If you're looking for a way to authenticate applications that are using your API, checkout the the restful_api_authentication gem - https://rubygems.org/gems/restful_api_authentication

The easiest way to create RESTful authentication in Rails is the combination of a User Model and a Session controller. So you will have new(login), create(authenticate), destroy(logout) actions in the Session controller. Depending on the app its fairly easy to write your own authentication. This screencast shows how easy it is. Authentication in Rails 3.1

Restful API in rails 3? Rails is restful.. just use routes [guide]

As for authentication, i strongly recommend devise. It's also the only one I have managed to get working on rails 3.
