Obtaining Client ID

Users need to use APIs to perform some tasks such as invite multiple users at a time to join your organization. In order to make the REST calls, you need to sign in. The parameters required for signing in are - client ID, email address, and password.

This topic describes the procedure to obtain the client ID. The client ID is unique for a combination of an email address and organization.

Note: This feature is deprecated and might be removed in a future release. TIBCO recommends that you use OAuth access tokens instead of an email address, password, and cookies. For more information, see OAuth Access Tokens.

Prerequisite

Your account must be approved for accessing published APIs by authorized TIBCO personnel. To contact the TIBCO Support team, see Contacting Support to request approval to access the published APIs.

Procedure:

To obtain client ID:

  • On the Settings tab, in the OAuth access tokens section, click Display client ID.

A unique permanent client ID is displayed on the page. To authenticate from a command-line application, you need to use a ClientID. You can click Copy to use the client ID to sign in and use the APIs. For more information about using APIs, see Enabling and Using Bulk User Management.

Note: To invite multiple users, the organization owner must sign in with a valid client ID, username, and password.
