KNIME Hub Authenticator

Authenticates against a KNIME Hub. The resulting output port allows compatible nodes, such as the Space Connector, to access the configured Hub.

Options

Current KNIME Hub: If the current workflow already resides on a KNIME Hub, then this option connects to the KNIME Hub using the credentials (i.e. the access token) of the current user.
KNIME Hub Mountpoint: This option allows to specify a mountpoint (see Space Explorer) that connects to a KNIME Hub. Unconnected mountpoints are greyed out and can still be selected, but you need to go to the Space Explorer and sign in to the mountpoint before executing this node.
Other KNIME Hub: Allows to authenticate against any KNIME Hub by specifying a URL and Application Password (see below).
API URL: The base URL of the KNIME Hub REST API, for example https://api.hub.knime.com/. The API URL can be entered manually, or by choosing a mountpoint via the Select button.
Application Password ID: The Application Password ID to use. See KNIME Hub User Guide.
Application Password: The Application Password to use. Warning: The application password will be stored in weakly encrypted form as part of the node settings in the workflow.
Use credentials: Allows to choose a credentials flow variable that provides the application password to login with.

Output KNIME Hub URL flow variable: Outputs a flow variable with the URL of the selected KNIME Hub.
Variable name: The name of the flow variable with the KNIME Hub URL.
