-In some cases you might want to use the `convertLegacyAuthProps` helper to create base properties that can then be extended with custom parameters. This is useful when the provisioning file used has similar structure to the one defined in ()[]. It can make using the `Auth` component extremely easy and still provide enough flexibility to customize it for your needs. For instance using the `BasicAuth` we can change it's name and description shown in the dropdown, as well as tooltips.
