Add-on configuration question

When you install an add-on from the hass.io store and configure it in that window, do you also have to add an entry to configuration.yaml?

Specifically, I’m wondering about the Mosquitto add-on. If I add a username and password to the in-browser configuration, do I have to do the same in configuration.yaml?

This page shows how to do both, but it doesn’t seem explicit about whether or not it’s necessary.

No, that’s not necessary.
Unless you set anonymous to false
