Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

The authorize action makes authentication API calls to the video hosting service. The authorization method varies based on the provider and is determined by their supported embed iframe.

Content Publishing appends the authentication token as a query parameter along with its corresponding value to the embedded URL. The configured subflow inputs and outputs manage the query parameters and response body.

Nota:

The JSON Web Token (JWT) and access token authentication methods are proven to work. To use a different method, ensure you configure the subflow to return a token. The video hosting service must support auto-authentication via the token in the URL.

Procedimento

1. If you have already opened a Content Provider, click the Content Provider Mapping Preview record icon then click Open Record.
   Navigate to All > Content Publishing > Content Provider Configs > Content Processors.
2. Click New.
