Interview Extension Connections

Interview extension connections provide a way to validate and extend data interactions during interviews. The connection is invoked securely from a JavaScript interview extension that passes a call request to the Intelligent Advisor server. The security options for the connection are to:

• Pass a client certificate (2-way SSL)
• Use basic authentication for secure server-to-server authentication
• Authenticate by using the access token from an authorization provider
• Support custom SSL root certificates

The connection is also compatible with third party keys. That is, an authentication key can be passed in the connection URL, or in the request body. A fixed outbound Hub IP can also be registered to the third party authentication key.

Additional credentials can also be passed to the connection in an authorization header subject to certain conditions.
