Authenticate Using | (String). Specifies the user credentials for authenticating client requests to the native API. Note: If Mediator is used to access a native API protected by NTLM (which is typically hosted in IIS), then the native API in IIS should be configured to use NTLM as the authentication scheme. If the authentication scheme is configured as Windows, then NTLM should be in its list. The Negotiate handshake is supported in the near future. This note applies to all three of the following options for NTLM. | ||
