Hi sergiog0003,
Can you provide what type of authentication method you're using? Because if it is an authorization code grant method, then we have to use the authorization link function to display the link in the interface and get the token for the specific user session.
If it is the client credentials method, then Appian will automatically get the tokens while calling this connected system via an integration.
I am sorry,I don't know what the difference of client credentials method, and the authorization code grant. Do I only need one, or should I use both?
Authorization code grant -> User to System communication & hence it needs user interaction.
Client Credentials grant -> System to System communication which will use predefined credentials & doesn't involve user interaction.
We can use only one based on the requirement.
I would want to use Client Credentials grant but i dont know how to implement it on my system.
is there documentation that can help me do that?
It's pretty straightforward and is more like an authorization code setup. Below link might help you
