Support for Certificate Authority (CA) Certificates in Authentication
The Anaplan v2 Connector for MuleSoft enables customers to use public key certificates obtained from a Certificate Authority (CA) . You can purchase certificates from a CA that ends in a supported Root CA, then use your certificates for authentication with Anaplan. Authentication using CA certificates is considered a best practice in the industry, allowing you to leverage the benefits of a public key infrastructure.
Anaplan continues to support Anaplan Basic authentication, using a user ID and password.
The Anaplan v2 Connector for MuleSoft generates a token used in all subsequent API calls. The Anaplan v2 Connector for MuleSoft internally handles all steps necessary for authentication, including obtaining this token for API calls and refreshing expired tokens.
For more more information, see Administration: Certificates in Anapedia.
Enhanced Security - Run Integrations on your Tenant only
With the Anaplan Integrations v2.0 API, users can run API calls against your Tenant only. This change provides enhanced security.
The Anaplan v2 Connector for MuleSoft is based on Mule 3.8 runtime. The connector works on both Mule 3.8 and 3.9 runtimes. The Anaplan v2 Connector for MuleSoft is not supported on Mule 4.x runtimes due to changes in MuleSoft architecture. We plan to support the Mule 4.x runtime in a future release.
