Provision the BlackBerry AtHoc API client

The BlackBerry AtHoc User Sync Client uses the BlackBerry AtHoc API to synchronize users. The client is authenticated using the industry standard OAuth 2.0 protocol before allowing access to call APIs. You must have a client ID and client secret provisioned for your instance of the BlackBerry AtHoc User Sync Client.

You must be an Organization Administrator, Enterprise Administrator, or System Administrator to provision the BlackBerry AtHoc API client. You must be a System Administrator to enable a provisioned application.

This task is not required if you already have a client ID and client secret.

  1. Log in to the BlackBerry AtHoc management system as an Organization Administrator, Enterprise Administrator, or System Administrator.
  2. In the navigation bar, click The Settings icon.
  3. In the System Setup section, click API Applications.
  4. On the API Applications screen, click New.
  5. On the New API Application screen, enter a name for the API integration.
  6. (System administrators only) Next to Status, select Enabled.
  7. In the Authentication section, select Password for Grant Type.
  8. Click Save. A Success message appears that includes the client ID and client secret.
  9. Take note of the displayed client ID and client secret. It is displayed only once and will need to be regenerated if lost.
