Configuring OAuth Connection Settings
Open Authorization (OAuth) is a token-based technique of authentication and authorization used to provide Single Sign-On (SSO). This method allows a user’s account information to be used by third-party applications and services without revealing that user’s password. It acts as an intermediary on behalf of the end-user, providing the service with an access token that authorizes specific account information to be shared.
Go to Adv. Configuration > SSO - OAuth and follow the steps below to configure and manage your OAuth connections.
Click Create New Connection and the Connection Details form displays.
Using the table below as a reference, complete the Connection Details form.
Review your values and click Save Connection to configure this OAuth connection.
Once a connection has been added, you can highlight the connection name and click Edit Connection or Delete Connection as required.
