When setting up a new integration on Canvas, the first step is to register the applications we want to connect.
Info |
---|
If you are setting up an integration for a client we recommend that you add the app to the client’s own account, i.e. a separate account set up by/for the client. |
To add an application to the user account, go to the Applications section and click the + sign in “Add new appliaction” button at the top right cornerof the screen:
...
Select the application you want to connect to. We are going to add “Talent Manager 2”, you can search for the app you want at the top of the page. Click “Configure“ on the app you want to set up.
...
Enter the requested credentials, and give the application a descriptive name, and press Authenticate to save.
...
If authentication fails you will receive an error message. Otherwise the credentials will be stored in an encrypted vault for later use. Session tokens are automatically refreshed, so you can build your integrations and interact with the API without having to think about authentication.
Repeat this process to register applications for all other apps that will be part of your integration.
