BAMOE Canvas does not feature its own authentication mechanism. Instead, BAMOE Canvas allows the linking of existing accounts from AI, Git, and Cloud providers. These accounts are utilized for Git operations such as Pull and Push, for creating Dev Deployments, and for accessing AI-powered services.

Viewing connected accounts in BAMOE Canvas

All connected accounts are visible in the Accounts dialog, which is accessible through the person icon in the top-right corner. This dialog displays the number of repositories, deployments, and AI services being used by those accounts. Clicking on the arrow provides further information about the accounts, including the date they were linked to BAMOE Canvas.

Accounts can be removed from BAMOE Canvas through the Accounts dialog. Removing an account will result in repositories linked to Git provider accounts losing the ability to Push and Pull. The account linked to a repository can be changed at any time using the dropdown available on the Editor page of any file in the repository.

The figure shows two connected accounts: one from GitHub and another from a Kubernetes cluster.

A Re-authenticate button will appear next to sessions that become invalid, allowing you to renew credentials without re-entering all configuration details manually and without having to update references in existing projects.
