Instance Access Token

The Instance Access Token enables you to invoke RESTful APIs (from external systems) that are packaged in the OFSAA Applications.

To enable this use case, you have to register the external system through the configuration UI as explained in the following section.

Note:

The Instance Access Token feature is available from OFS AAI v8.0.8.3.0 and later versions.

The Instance Access Token provides the following abilities:

  • Mechanism to generate multiple Unique Transaction Tokens that can be used to invoke the RESTful endpoint.
  • Unique combination of OFSAA instance and a given external system name.

    Note:

    • The OFSAA Administrator user is responsible to generate the token (or tokens) and share it with the external systems.
    • Every external system invoking the RESTful endpoints on the OFSAA instance must generate a separate unique Instance Access Token.
  • Ability to generate the Instance Access Token multiple times, if previous token is misplaced or lost.
  • Endpoint to generate the Unique Transaction Token requests based on the input of Instance Name and Instance Access Token.
