Downloading the credentials of svc_ln

In this tutorial scenario, all 20 machines use the same service account user.

You must program each machine to use the credentials of the service account user svc_ln to send API messages to LN. You can download these credentials from API Gateway.

  1. Go to API Gateway.
  2. Select Authorized Apps.
  3. If no authorized app exists for your LN application, you must create one. For details see “Registering the client application” in the Infor API Gateway Administration Guide.

    Points of attention for this LN-specific app:

    • In the Type field, specify Backend Service.
    • Make sure Issue Refresh Tokens is selected.
  4. Open the authorized app of your LN application.
  5. Download the credentials of the service account for this app.
    1. Click Download Credentials.

      The Download Credentials dialog box starts.

    2. Make sure Create Service Account is selected.
    3. Leave the Full name field blank.
    4. Click DOWNLOAD.

    A .ionapi file is downloaded. This file contains the credentials of LN user svc_ln.
