Developer Signup

You must register as a developer with DanglIT to get access to Dangl.AVACloud. For this, please create a new account at Dangl.Identity.

Once you are registered, switch to the Developer tab in your profile. This is an opt-in mechanism where you mark yourself as developer.

After you've activated your developer status, there are more menu sections available on the left.

Next, you will have to register an OAuth2 client that is later used to authenticated with Dangl.AVACloud. Please navigate to the Clients section and click Add Client.

While the ClientId will be automatically generated, you have to enter a name for your client as well as an url. The url should point to information about your client and provide means of contacting you. Please provide some description about what your client does - this will be shown to users when they are asked to consent to your client accessing their data.

After clicking on Save, you are redirected to the clients information page.

The first group of properties shown cannot be changed by you. Please contact DanglIT if you need something changed in this section.

Initially, there is no ClientSecret configured. To access Dangl.AVACloud, one must be set.

The allowed grant types for new clients include client_credentials, which is how you will later authenticate with the Dangl.AVACloud web service. Additionally, please mark the avacloud scope to indicate that your client intends to use the parts of the API.

The next section shows the Claims that are associated with your client. Claims can be thought of as properties that describe your client. Since you are its creator, the client has assigned your id as its owner.

For the next step, you have to navigate to the Services section in the left menu. Select AVACloud and click on Start Trial.

A confirmation screen is shown with more information.

Dangl.Identity reports that the trial was successfully activated.

Please navigate back to the clients section and click on your client.

When you scroll down to its claims, you will notice that the avacloud_client_access claim has been added. You now have 30 days access to the full functionality of Dangl.AVACloud!

If you navigate to the Claims section of your profile, you will find that there is also a new claim: avacloud_user_access. This claim grants you 30 days access to Dangl.AVACloud when you are using other clients to access the service, for example via the interactive API documentation.
