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.
Alternatively, you can simply use this one-click signup where you just enter your email address to get started with AVACloud.
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.
