    HTTP Basic Authentication

    < 1 min read

    For Connectors that use HTTP Basic Authentication.

    Your user’s username and password will need to be collected by your application then passed to Cyclr as follows:

    • Concatenate the username and password values with a colon between them as “username:password”, e.g.:
      JohnSmith:p455W0rd
    • Base64 encode the concatenated username and password value, giving something this:
      Sm9oblNtaXRoOnA0NTVXMHJk

    That string should then be set as the AuthValue property of the Account Connector.
