Before you connect

  • Egnyte requires a subscription / entitlement — connecting needs valid Egnyte credentials.
  • User mode authorizes via OAuth; Dynamic Client Registration (DCR) auto-registers Ferentin as a client, so no client ID/secret is entered manually (credential inheritance: ALLOW_INHERIT).
  • Agent mode uses a tenant-bound Bearer token.

1 more technical note
  • Authorization uses an Egnyte domain picker during the OAuth flow.
