Hi,
I have a REST API Resource that relies on Custom Authentication. Is it possible to share the credentials with all users? I noticed that other users in Retool need to re-authenticate for the queries using that resource to work.
Thank you!
Hey there @AlejandroPalacio,
So there is an option available in most (or all) Oauths,
I have noticed it is not always available, such as when it is an simple api with no Oauth, but all of your users should be able to use them anyway. So if if your resource requires authentication, you should be able to see this "Share credentials between users" option, almost at the bottom.
Hey @MiguelOrtiz, thank you for your response. I'm working with a Custom Auth, it is an OAuth 2.0. But I can't find that option, this is what I see at the very bottom of the resource page.
Hey @AlejandroPalacio!
The custom authentication pattern currently does not support the ability to share credentials across users. There is an existing feature request in our backlog that I can bump on your behalf!
Depending on the complexity of your custom flow, however, there is the option to perform authentication without prompting the user. This can effectively result in the same user experience but notably does not work in every use case - e.g. if you require inputting credentials.
I hope this helps! I'll be sure to provide an update here if there is movement on that feature request. 
Hello,
This would be a welcome feature. I had to use custom auth flow for machine to machine integration and expected it to work same as the OAuth2 Authorization Code Grant flow in terms of user credentials.
Is it possible to bump that request please?
