Configure Softlink Authentication
Please note that Softlink's API does not currently support patron authentication. We do not currently have a known date when patron functionality will be enabled for Softlink.
In anticipation of this functionality coming in the future, we have included a section in the Authentication dashboard for administrators to store the information in advance.
