Documentation

Definition

A consumer key is a value used by the consumer to identify itself to the service provider, along with a consumer secret; the secret guarantees the ownership of the consumer key.

Use

Consumer key and consumer secret are part of the authentication protocol OAuth.

If the authentication at a collaboration platform must take place via OAuth, the consumer key for accesses on behalf of an application must be retrieved via a registration process and subsequently must be registered at the on-premise system:

  • The consumer key must be registered at table CLB2C_APPL_PLATF
  • The consumer secret must be registered at the Secure Store (SSF).
