Configuring Access to the CloudBlue Commerce APIs

Before installing the EDS service, configure access to the CloudBlue Commerce XMLRPC and APS REST APIs:

  1. For the provider account, create a user and assign the Account Administrator Operations role to the user. Write down the credentials of the user.

  2. Check the security settings of the CloudBlue Commerce XMLRPC API and make sure that it can accept connections from the EDS server. See the Operations Provider Guide for details.
  3. Write down the URL of the CloudBlue Commerce XMLRPC API.
  4. Generate an OAuth key and an OAuth secret for the user, and write them down.

    To generate OAuth credentials for a user, follow the instructions in the Platform SDK Guide.

  5. Enable the following APS operations for the user:

    • http://www.odin.com/pa/aps/exchange/types/application (APS Type) / POST (HTTP Method)
    • http://www.odin.com/pa/aps/exchange/types/application (APS Type) / GET (HTTP Method)

    To do this, use the instructions in the Platform SDK Guide.

  6. Write down the URL of the brand site to be used by the EDS service to access the CloudBlue Commerce APS REST API.
