B. Edit Dun & Bradstreet application details

At this point, you’re presented with a series of options for providing Dun & Bradstreet authentication.

Name (required): Provide a clear and distinguishable name. Throughout integrator.io imports and exports, you will have the option to choose this new connection, and a unique identifier will prove helpful later when selecting among a list of connections that you’ve created.

Application (required, non-editable): A reminder of the app you’re editing.

Username (required): Enter the username for your Dun & Bradstreet account.

Password (required): Enter the password for your Dun & Bradstreet account. Multiple layers of protection are in place, including AES 256 encryption, to keep your connection’s password safe. When editing this form later, you must generate this value again; it is stored only when the connection is saved and never displayed as text.

Generate token (required): Click the Generate token button to have integrator.io fill in an encrypted access token. The button is enabled after you enter the username and password. Multiple layers of protection, including AES 256 encryption, are in place to keep your connection’s token safe. When editing this form later, you must generate this value again; it is stored only when the connection is saved and never displayed as text.

C. Edit advanced Dun & Bradstreet settings

Before continuing, you have the opportunity to provide additional configuration information, if needed, for the Dun & Bradstreet connection.

D. Test the connection

Click Test connection to check whether your connection is successful. A message appears to confirm a successful connection.

If you receive an error message, verify the settings under Application details are correct.

Once the configuration is complete, click Save & close.

When you test or save the connection, it is verified before continuing.

The new connection is now successfully added to your account. It will be applied to the current source or destination app if you created it within a flow. Otherwise, you can proceed to register the connection with an integration.
