Spotfire Connectors
Spotfire connectors support a variety of authentication and transport security options.
See the documentation for each connector to see available security options.
- Database Credentials for Connectors
Because the database connections using Spotfire connectors are initiated directly from the Spotfire client (Spotfire Analyst, Spotfire Web Player, or Spotfire Automation Services), it is important to understand that any database credentials must be available to the client to establish the connection. Spotfire connector data source credentials settings control whether credentials are embedded in the connection or not. - Client ID and secret for the Microsoft SharePoint Online Connector
For the Microsoft SharePoint Online connector, Spotfire installed clients use a default client ID and client secret from a Spotfire app in Microsoft Azure AD. For the web clients, you add your own client ID and secret.
