Clients
Contents
Clients can access APIs after they are added to the Clients section. After adding the client, a Client Subscription is added to the APIs, thereby binding them with a single API consumer key which allows them to access the subscribed API products.
Click the Clients icon in the Applications screen to add and configure client details.
Adding a new Client
- Click the Add button on the upper-left part of the Clients tab in the Applications screen
Provide a valid email ID in the Client ID text field.
Client ID text field accepts only a mail ID.
- Click OK to add the client.
Provide the client name and attributes if any under the Configuration tab.
Email address with which the client gets added and subscriptions (if any are saved in the server) will be auto-populated.
Click the Save button to apply the changes after adding the client.
- The font colour of the client name changes from red to green after saving.
- A password will be sent to the client's email address. Click Resend if the client did not receive the mail.
