OfficeRnD allows you to provide access to your organization's data to third parties. These might be developers in your organization creating a custom extension for OfficeRnD or a separate DevShop with an application that needs to interact with the OfficeRnD platform.
In both cases, they need a way to access data in your organization and a way to prove they are authorized to access this data. This is where API Access comes in handy. (Read more on APIs here).
You can manage access to your organization's data under Settings > Developer Tools > Applications, as shown in the image below:
For each external application that needs to access your data, you have to create a separate Application. You can create a new one by clicking Add Application on the top right. The following dialog opens:
The following parameters are available when creating an application:
Name - the name of the application.
Description - description of the application.
Logo - a logo for the application. Usually, logos are present when the application you are issuing a token to comes from an external DevShop.
Read / Write - what level of access should the third-party application have over your data - read-only or full access?
Click Done to complete the application creation. For developers to be able to access your data, you will need to provide them with a Client Id and Client Secret. These are available when you click the View button next to your newly created application.
