Generating and Revoking Access Keys

To use TIBCO Cloud - Proxy Agent, you must first generate an access key. The access keys feature is available only for TIBCO Cloud™ Integration.

Generating an Access Key

All users who are either the owners of an organization having a subscription for TIBCO Cloud™ Integration or are Team Administrators of a subscription for TIBCO Cloud Integration can generate an access key. Perform the following steps to generate an access key:

Note: Proxy Agent access keys that you generate are region-specific. For example, if you generate an access key in the EU region, you can use it only in the EU region. You can create a maximum of 500 access keys in a region.
    Procedure

  1. Go to the Settings tab, click the Proxy Agent access keys tab and then click Generate access key or you can download and install TIBCO Cloud Proxy Agent. For more information, see the Downloading and Installing TIBCO™ Cloud - Proxy Agent topic.

  2. In the Generate access dialog, enter the Access key ID and then select the capability from the drop-down. Click Generate. The maximum length permitted is 50 characters.

  3. To copy the access key, click Copy. This is the only time you can view the access key. The Secret Access Key is generated and displayed.

Using TIBCO Cloud API to Generate an Access Key

To generate access keys, you can use the TIBCO Cloud API. To use this API visit the TIBCO Cloud APIs page and click the Connected Intelligence Cloud tile.

Note: The secret access key is displayed only this one time. Copy it and store it in a secure place.

Revoking an Access Key

After you have generated an access key, if you do not want it any longer, you can revoke it. You can revoke more than one access key at a time.

    Procedure

  1. Go to the Settings tab and click the Proxy Agent access keys tab.

  2. From the access keys that are displayed, select the checkboxes preceding the access keys that you want to revoke and click the Revoke button at the top.

Note: When you revoke an access key, the Connect URL associated with it is deleted as well. This means that the connections that use this URL are disconnected. Removing the association with the app must be done manually.
