Updating the OAuth2 Client Using UAAC

Optional procedure for updating the OAuth2 client using UAAC instead of the graphical user interface in Predix.io.

To enable your application to access a platform service, your JSON Web Token (JWT) must contain the scopes required for a platform service. For example, the Access Control service requires the acs.policies.read acs.policies.write scope. For a complete list of scopes required by a service, see the relevant section in each service.

The OAuth2 client uses an authorization grant to request an access token. OAuth2 defines four grant types. Based on the type of authorization grant that you have used, you must update your OAuth2 client to generate the required JWT. For more information on how the OAuth2 client is created, see Creating OAuth2 client.
