(Example) How to Get the Access Token Credentials from Redox
This example shows how to get the access token credentials from Redox.
Background and Setup
Prerequisites
- One of these account types:
- A Redox free account.
- A Redox pre-production account.
- A Redox production account.
Good to Know
- OAuth 2.0 access tokens require a 2-way exchange of credentials between AgilePoint NX and the external service. This means that you must get the credentials from the third-party service to paste in the AgilePoint NX access token, and get the redirect URI from AgilePoint NX to paste in the external service. This requires you to open both the AgilePoint NX access token and the third-party service at the same time, so you can copy and paste from one screen to the other.
This topic shows the suggested procedure for Redox. The exact procedure for your access token depends on whether you already have a connection (usually called an app) configured in the external service.
- This topic gives one example. The procedure may vary depending on your configuration and account settings in the third-party service.
