Hey Jon - you don't have to use customer-managed ORDS in this use-case, however, one of the things I'm finding is that the approach above breaks Social Sign-on. So if that's a requirement, you're into customer-managed ORDS territory. See the "Epilogue" above.

Hi Matt, thanks for the cool article - I'll be trying it out within the next few days.
I can see you mentioned that SSO wouldn't work with this. Can you confirm if other API calls would work - such as an API request to PayPal?
