How to call a Appian User Interface from external web application and what is the authentication to be followed if the Appian application already following Basic Authentication?

Question

Hi, 
 
 Can someone tell me how to call a Appian User Interface from external web application (from a spring/jquery web application we need to call the appian user interface and display some details from Appian DB) and what is the authentication to be followed if the Appian application already following Basic Authentication? 
 Thanks.

Hi Balaji - 
 If you're looking to display an Appian interface contained in another application, that sounds like a use case for an embedded interface . 
 If your use case is to simply obtain data from Appian for use elsewhere, an Appian Web API might satisfy your needs.
