Using NTLM Authentication with Anaplan Connect

While setting up your Anaplan Connect integration, if you encounter authentication errors with your proxy it may be because it uses NTLM. Anaplan Connect does not support this out of the box, but you can enable it by following these steps:

  • Navigate to http://jcifs.samba.org/ 
  • Download the latest JCIFS jar file (1.3.19 as of the date of this post)
  • Install the jar file in Anaplan Connect's lib folder

After doing this, you should be able to successfully authenticate with your proxy using the -via and -viauser options in your Anaplan Connect script.
