Create a Client application

A Confidential Client application must be created for use with Fusion Service when it interacts with IDCS. Use the IDCS Administrator Console to obtain appropriate application client credentials.

You'll either create an application client or get the Client ID and Client Secret of an existing client application.

If you need to create an application to use, follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to Identity Cloud Service as the Administrator user.

  2. Click the Navigation drawer and then expand the Applications list.

  3. Click the Add icon.

  4. Choose Confidential Application.

  5. In the Name field enter Proxy User Data Service App and click Next.

  6. Select Configure this application as a client now option.

  7. In the Authorization area, select the Client Credentials option for Allowed Grant Types.

  8. In the Token Issuance Policy area, for Grant the client access to Identity Cloud Service Administrator APIs, click Add or select all.

  9. In the Add App Role dialog box, select User Administrator, and click Add.

  10. Click Next, and then on the Resources page, click Next again.

  11. In the Web Tier Policy page, click Next again.

  12. On the Authorization page, click Finish.

  13. From the Application Added dialog box, record the Client ID and Client Secret and then click Close.

  14. Click Activate, and then in the confirmation dialog box, click OK to activate the application.
