Generating API Key

Managing Key Approval for the Manual type

When a product whose key approval is marked Manual (if Key Approval Type property of Figure 2 in Products page is selected as 'Manual') is added to a client subscription, the corresponding keys will not be available for the developers immediately. So, to approve the keys, the administrator needs to modify the corresponding application which is present as a client subscription.

In the Client Subscription Configuration page, click the product name which has the Manual type Key Approval and select the Approve check box, which appears along with the Consumer Key that gets generated, for key approval after which the keys will be visible to the developer.

Transaction Invioce

Transaction invoices for the client-subscriptions will be generated for previous months duringapimanagerserver start-up.

Invoices will be stored in $FIORANO_HOME/runtimedata/repository/Transaction-Invoices.

Invoices will be generated from subscription-creation date to the last month for all the subscriptions.
