AppDirect Component

AppDirect component is designed for AppMarket API integration.

Description

This component uses v2 version of API which described at AppMarket API Reference.

Authentication

Authentication occurs via OAuth 2.0. To make OAuth work, you need a new App in your Environment.

Configuring your environment

Here is how to configure your environment:

  1. Login to your environment.
  2. Follow to Manage –> Marketplace –> Setting –> API Clients –> Create API Client.
  3. Create a new API Client:
    • Specify Name of client.
    • Enable oauth2 authorization.
    • Select “Authorization Code” grant type checkbox.
    • Specify the callback URL.

Your Callback URL should be:

https://{your-tenant.address}/callback/oauth2

Actual Callback URL can be found here.

Warning: To maintain a smooth experience, we recommend reusing stored credentials where possible. Duplicating secrets across OAuth clients can result in errors and complications.

Check that Require API client to request scopes option is disabled in your API Client:

API Client Settings

Click Save Settings. The new API client is created, along with a Consumer Secret and Consumer Key. A message appears that includes the Consumer Secret and a warning that you should copy and store the secret in a safe location because it cannot be retrieved after the message is dismissed.

You can use Create API clients manual for additional information.
