Authentication Methods

To use OAuth authentication, you must register an application in the Discord Developer Portal:
1
Visit the Discord Developer Portal and click New Application.
2
Provide a name for your application, then click Create.
3
Navigate to the OAuth2 section.
4
Add a redirect URL and set it to https://oauth.cdata.com/oauth/.
5
Copy the Client ID and Client Secret. Store the client secret securely. In Connect AI, the Client ID is entered as the OAuth Client Id and the Client Secret as the OAuth Client Secret.
In Connect AI:
1
Enter the OAuth Client Id and OAuth Client Secret obtained from the Discord Developer Portal.
2
Click Sign in to connect securely through OAuth. This action opens the Discord sign-in page in a new tab.
3
Log in to your Discord account and grant the requested permissions.
4
At the top of the Connect AI Add Connection page, click Save & Test.
  • If the connection test succeeds, a Connection successfully saved message appears, indicating that your connection has been created. The Status on the Edit Connection page also changes to Authenticated. View the data model of your successful connection in the right pane of the Edit Connection page, in the Data Model tab.
  • If the connection test fails, ensure that you entered your login information correctly with no stray spaces or other characters. Connect AI displays error messages under the required fields with missing data. Some data sources require that you sign in directly to the source website. If you did not, an error message appears under the Sign in button. Correct the errors and try again.
  • Unsuccessful connections are saved as drafts and have a Status of Not Authenticated. You can return to the connection and authenticate it later.
