Preparing for authentication

To access your Acumaticadata, you need to authenticate the connection with your account credentials.

  1. On the System tab, click Integration and navigate to Configure > Connected Applications.

  2. In Client Name type the name of the registered application. Leave Client ID blank. It will be generated when you save your changes on the form.

  3. In OAuth 2.0 Flow , select Resource Owner Password Credentials.

  4. On the Secrets tab, do the following for each client secret you want to add:

    1. On the tab toolbar, click Add Shared Secret.

      The Add Shared Secret dialog opens.

    2. In Description, type the description of the shared secret.

    3. Copy and save the value that is displayed in Value. This is your client secret for authentication in Acumatica ERP.

      Information noteFor security reasons, the value of the secret is displayed only once, when you create the secret.

    4. Click OK to save the client secret and close the dialog.

  5. On the form toolbar, click Save.

    The client ID is now generated in Client ID. The client application should use this client ID along with the client secret for authentication to Acumatica.
