Edit a Server's Authentication Details

After a service connection is created, you can edit the server's authentication details from the Servers tab.

Note:

For service connections created after the 23.10 release, server authentication details must be updated from the backend associated with the service connection. For more information, see Set the Backend's Authentication Method and Connection Type

You might want to edit the authentication details when the authorization requirements of your app change, for example, you need to allow anonymous access to the service or you need to override the settings for the backend service. If you have multiple servers added to your service connection, you may need to make changes in more than one server.

To edit a service's authentication settings:

  1. Open the service connection's Servers tab.
  2. Click the Edit
    Edit icon that looks like a pencil.

    icon beside the server instance you want to edit.
  3. In the Edit Server dialog, you can use the Authentication drop-down list to change the authentication method.

    If the connection is to a service in your Service Catalog, click Override security to display the Authentication drop-down list, where you can override settings inherited from the backend. To change the connection type inherited from the backend, click Override Connection Type and make changes.

  4. (Optional) Select Allow anonymous access to the Service Connection Infrastructure and select the authentication method for anonymous users in the Authentication for anonymous users drop-down list.
