Disabling authentication for outside source trying to post to pipeline

[ctlarson]

I have an outside source that needs to post to my pipeline and I am wondering if there is a way to remove authentication.
Is there a way to disable authentication for outside sources posting to my pipeline? I have removed the bearer token from my task but that didnt do the trick.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hey Chris,

I don’t think there’s a way to disable authentication for a pipeline, but if your user can’t use basic auth or add the Bearer token to the HTTP Request Headers, they can append the token to the URL in a query string with a “bearer_token” parameter. Example:

https://elastic.snaplogic.com/api/.../taskName?bearer_token=ABC123

This worked perfectly. Thank you very much for your help!

Hi ctlarson,
There is no way you can disable authentication, if you remove token then you have to pass userid/password(basic auth) to header.

One idea might work- create task in groundplex and do ip whitelisting to outside server then they can access this API without any authentication .
