I see some App integrations such as Airtable ask you for a private key for Auth.
What are the pros/cons of this?
What is the typical route people use for Authentication?

Hi
It depends on the API and the Authentication procedure used in the API. If you are trying to build a private integration, you need to check the API Documents of the app you are trying to connect to.

It’s not a direct answer to your question, but you might find these authentication docs helpful that take you through how to do various forms of authentication in apps:
