Its not possible. At present there are two authentications used for Web API.
• HTTP basic authentication
• Standard forms-based login (Single Sign On)

Hi, as others mentioned, there is no way you can skip authentication for Appian exposed web service. So, we need to authenticate every time you call the service. This is the best pratice and we should secure the web service call always.

Use the third party credentails in other environent admin console and refer them during the service call.

May i know why you are reluctant to authenticate the service? is their any specific reason or requirement?

Thanks - Naveen

Hi kondetiv,

Were you able to provide the authentication for the same? If yes, can you explain in brief what steps you followed exactly.

Thanks.

You can use a middle-ware to extract the data using, again, the authentication, but after that you can expose it (free 4 all) ... let's say in a JSON or CVS format.

erikm192 There is no other way, you need to pass your authentication details.
