Step 4: (Optional) Add Authentication Requirement

If you are concerned about the privacy of your data, you may wish to add an authentication layer to your integration with Yext.

  1. On your Acquia page, click Extend in the top row.

  2. Find HTTP Basic Authentication in the list and check the box next to it (under the Web Services section).

  3. At the bottom of the page, click Install.

  4. Head back to Yext. Now, when you try to pull data within your connector, you will receive an “Unauthenticated” error message.

  5. Switch your operation to the “Private Content” equivalent, re-enter your Drupal domain, and now include your Drupal username and password.

  6. Pull content, and you have successfully created an authenticated integration!
