Finta Install & Auth

Output

Record only the authentication method, workspace owner, granted scope, validation timestamp, and secret-manager reference. Never paste credentials, authorization headers, or user information into tickets or logs.

Examples

Authorize a staging integration using a least-privilege credential stored by the deployment platform. Perform a read-only validation with a synthetic workspace, then verify that revoking the credential stops access before any production use.
