How search and promote will be crawling Intranet based websites

Hi Team,

In my current project, we have a requirement to implement Search and Promote on AEM based Intranet site, which is not available on open internet and works using SSO and login based Authentication.

Here, when we enter the Entrypoint URL under crawling for indexing we received HTTP 401 unauthorized err. Can anyone please help, how can we tackle this issue.

Thanks,

Aman

In our AEM site, we are using Okta Authentication, and S&P just supports basic authentication. We tried different trial methods and were later able figure out the way to bypass Authentication via S&P.

Steps:

     - Create a new Admin User in AEM instance.

     - Provide these credentials in the S&P account integrated with AEM.

     - In S&P, go to Setting> Crawling> Passwords and provide these credentials. [About Passwords]

Boom.. it starts crawling..

Thanks,

Aman
