The following section describes the technical steps to get started with the integration. It is an additional resource which completes our openAPI description of the REST API.
Web form services use Access () in order to implement various workflows. The below steps is a pre-requisite to use Web form’s REST services. Essentially, it creates a secure profile for the customer and individual secure profiles for their end users necessary for consuming web form services.
Step 1: Get authorized as a client in Access
The major prerequisite for getting authorized as a client (i.e application) is having a valid set of client credentials: client_id
and client_secret
.
To get authorized as a client, make a call to Access POST/ oauth / token and pass the following request parameters:
grant_type
= client_credentialsclient_id
client_secret
The client authorization request response:
{ "access_token": "fnsXpguIBkChhCsN8bVty9Y68AsUvJYyXUILcsFBvWABF03k8Ov68Ev2BTyANuBjyX8r9XuuTajNM2zZnhZMDjKWHN4lbRSRcVhg9_PcE7eeXHm0t28ZjzM4TJlrupZD", "token_type": "bearer", "expires_in": 3599, "scope": "all" }
To get authorized, use the obtained access_token
as an input for Access QUICK AUTH.
Step 2: Create an Access user
The major prerequisite for creating a user is getting authorized as a client with the help of the obtained access_token
in Step 1.
To create a user, make a call to Access POST/users and pass the following request body:
{ "id": "username", "password": "password", "email": "email@localhost.de", "phone": "+49 99 999999-999", "isAutoUpdateEnabled": false }
The user creation request response:
{ "id": "username", "password": "password", "email": "email@localhost.de", "phone": "+49 99 999999-999", "isAutoUpdateEnabled": false }
Step 3: Get authorized as a user
The major prerequisite for creating a user is getting the user’s data, such as password
and id (username
) from the Step 2.
To get authorized as a user, make a call to Access POST/ oauth / token and pass the following request parameters:
grant_type
= passwordclient_id
username
password
The user authorization request response:
{ "access_token": "nnsXpguIBkChhCsN8bVty9Y68AsUvJYyXUILcsFBvWABF03k8Ov68Ev2BTyANuBjyX8r9XuuTajNM2zZnhZMDjKWHN4lbRSRcVhg9_PcE7eeXHm0t28ZjzM4TJlrupZD", "token_type": "bearer", "expires_in": 3599, "scope": "all" }
To get authorized, use the obtained access_token
as an input for DI QUICK AUTH (should be updated)
