Authentication

The Authentication page allows users to see a list of all available Authentication Connections.

Authentication connections are used by Integration Connections to connect to the source repositories and are reusable. Instead of writing the auth configuration into every repository / output connector, we can set the authentication configuration in one authentication connector and use it with multiple connectors.

Search: You can search for connectors using the search field. This field will search connector names and description for matching results.

Created By: Users can filter the list by who created the connector by selecting the user name from the created by drop down.

Sort: You can sort by name and description. Use the show drop down to expand or limit the number of authentications that show on the page. Use the page numbers at the bottom to move from one page to the next.

Actions: The following actions can be taken on Authentication connections listed

Action		Description
	View	Will show you all of the connector details
	Test	Test the Authentication connection
	Edit	Allows you to edit the connection
	Copy	Will create a copy of the connection
	Delete	Will permanently delete the connection. If this connection is being used in any jobs or content views it cannot be deleted
