Prerequisites

You must be on the new Pages architecture in order to build secure Pages and sites.

This also cannot use Pages legacy config, but rather must use the new config structure. Refer to this guide to confirm you have the proper setup.

Overview

Using Yext Auth, you can authenticate users and secure your entire site all within the Yext Platform. The following steps will walk you through how to configure the Yext IDP to secure your site, and then set up Authorized Search to make sure the right people see the right content.

This guide is part of the Consumer Auth Initiative to create Private Sites and Authorized Search Experiences. Please refer to the Consumer Auth Overview guide before getting started to make sure this is the right option for you.
