Connections

Basic Auth

Basic Authentication (often referred to as “Basic Auth”) is a simple authentication scheme used in API connections. It involves sending the user’s credentials (typically a username and password) as part of the HTTP request. The credentials are encoded using Base64, and then included in the Authorization header of the request.

Bearer Auth

Bearer Authentication (often referred to as “Bearer Token Authentication”) is a security mechanism for authenticating requests to an API or web service using an API Key or token. The token is included in the HTTP request header with a “bearer” prefix, allowing the server to verify the identity and permissions of the requester.

OAuth 2.0

OAuth 2.0 is a widely used authorization framework that supports system-to-system (client credentials) authentication. When it comes to system clients (also known as machine-to-machine or service-to-service communication), OAuth 2.0 provides a specific grant type known as the Client Credentials Grant.

oauth_body_param:grant_type=client_credentials
oauth_body_param:client_id={clientId}
oauth_body_param:client_secret={clientSecret}

Other optional config params to include in Other Connection Attributes. This is used when additional Authorization Headers need to be set for OAuth2 type.

http_auth_header:Authorization={clientId}:{clientSecret} // to set authorization basic http header
