Prerequisites for Creating a Connection
You must satisfy the following prerequisites to create a connection with the OData Adapter:
-
Know the OData service root URL.
-
Understand OAuth Security Policies:
If you are using one of the OAuth security policies, you must have already registered your client application to complete the necessary fields on the Connections page.
Before a client application can request access to resources on a resource server, the client application must first register with the authorization server associated with the resource server.
The registration is typically a one-time task. Once registered, the registration remains valid, unless the client application registration is revoked.
At registration time, the client application is assigned a client ID and client secret (password) by the authorization server. The client ID and secret are unique to the client application on that authorization server. If a client application registers with multiple authorization servers (for example, Facebook, Twitter, and Google), each authorization server issues its own unique client ID to the client application.@ref: http://tutorials.jenkov.com/oauth2/authorization.html
For OAuth configuration, read the provider documentation carefully and provide the relevant values.
