Basic Auth

Configuring auth is an important step and can be required in the following cases:

1. All App integrations that can access or add private data for users require authentication.

2. Any integration that stores private data will require authentication.

Before you start

• You should have a configured app.

• You should know which authentication schema to use based on your requirement.

• You should know the config details related to the authentication schema selected.

   1. Basic Auth:

      1. Eshopbox automatically adds a form where users will enter their username and password.

      2. You need to add a test API call where Eshopbox can verify that the credentials work. NOTE: You can turn your form mode to code mode. Click the Switch to Code Mode to write a custom API call in JavaScript code.

      3. A Connection Label to uniquely identify users’ accounts
