OAuth 2 Authorization Code

OAuth 1 Authorization

Important

The Bynder content connector can have only one authentication type at a time, if several authentication types are required, several connectors should be set up.

Note

If the Bynder Content Connector is utilizing OAuth 2 Authorization Code as an authentication type, the following should be noted:

When not logged in, the user will not be able to access any Bynder content; the content will only be displayed once the login has been successful.
If the user is already logged in on the Bynder side, the log in on Templafy's side will be seamless as the token already exists.
If the user isn't already logged in on the Bynder side, the user will need to provide Bynder credentials to log in as the token cannot be found.
If a user has multiple Bynder accounts and needs to switch between these accounts, this can be performed by logging out and logging in again within the same browser, OR by opening a different browser (or incognito) and logging in with the desired account.
