Authentication
Optimizely Graph supports multiple authentication methods, each designed for specific access levels and use cases. Choose the method that matches the audience and trust level of your integration so you grant only the access each caller needs.
OpenID Connect (OIDC)
Optimizely Graph uses OpenID Connect (OIDC) to authenticate API requests with industry-standard token-based identity. Opti ID is the default OIDC provider, which lets you reuse Optimizely single sign-on (SSO) credentials, enforce role-based access, and federate with other identity providers when your organization requires them.
Basic authentication from back end
Configure Optimizely Graph to retrieve content from your CMS (PaaS) solution, including restricted content that requires authenticated access. Learn how to install the ContentGraph addon, configure access rights, and query content using Postman or HTTP clients.
Webhooks
Optimizely Graph webhooks notify your applications when content changes, so workflows such as static site generation (for example, Gatsby) stay up to date without manual rebuilds. Use webhooks to drive automated pipelines that react to bulk sync events and to expired content in Optimizely Content Management System (CMS).
