Public

Description

The "public connection type is generally used for open and unauthenticated API connections where the only required configuration information is the endpoint URL.

However, since this type also supports the ability to add additional custom HTTP headers, you can also use it to configure connections that don't have their own type in the list of connection types.

Required Information

  • API Endpoint: The URL of the API endpoint.

Optional Information

  • Headers: A list of key/value pairs for populating HTTP headers for each request to the API endpoint. Click "+" to add a new header and enter the key and value.

Example

An example of using the "Public" connection type for an otherwise unsupported connection is for the "ApiKey" connection type, which is very similar to the "Bearer Token" connection type. Since this type isn't yet supported, you can configure a custom header on the connection as follows:

Key: Authorization Value: ApiKey <token>
