    AppCenterClient

    App center client authentication. You need to set ExactTargetConnectionStringBuilder.AppClientId and ExactTargetConnectionStringBuilder.AppClientSecret for this kind of authentication.

    This authentication is deprecated, and it is supported only for legacy packages. Since August 1, 2019, Marketing Cloud has removed the ability to create legacy packages, so any new packages are enhanced packages, not legacy packages, and they cannot use the App Center Client authentication. You can use this authentication only if you have a legacy package, created before August 1, 2019.

    RefreshToken

    OAuth authentication. You need to set ExactTargetConnectionStringBuilder.AppClientId, ExactTargetConnectionStringBuilder.AppClientSecret, ExactTargetConnectionStringBuilder.Subdomain, and ExactTargetConnectionStringBuilder.RefreshToken for this kind of authentication.

    ServerToServer

    Server to Server authentication - available for packages with Server to Server integration enabled. You need to set ExactTargetConnectionStringBuilder.AppClientId, ExactTargetConnectionStringBuilder.AppClientSecret, and ExactTargetConnectionStringBuilder.Subdomain for this kind of authentication.

    UserNamePasswordUsername/password authentication. You need to set the ExactTargetConnectionStringBuilder.Url, ExactTargetConnectionStringBuilder.User, and ExactTargetConnectionStringBuilder.Password properties for this kind of authentication.
