Create an OfficeRnD organisation

In order to have access to our API you'll need to have access to an organisation.This can be done by making a request for a new organisation through our website or if your teammates already have access to one they can invite you as a teammate.

Creating an application

Creating a new application (officernd.com)

Once you have access to the admin end of OfficeRnD you can create an application by going to Settings/Developer Tools. On this page, you'll be able to see a list of all the applications that have been created.

When you're creating an application you can specify:

  • Name - the name of the application.

  • Description - a short description of the application and what it does.

  • Image - an image associated with the application, e.g. a logo.

  • Permissions - the permissions that the app has. This determines what the app can do - read data only (GET) or both read and write (GET, PUT, POST, DELETE).

Once you create the application you'll have two buttons next to it - "Configure" and "View":

  • Configure - allows you to change the earlier parameters you entered.

  • View - gives you the "Client ID" and "Client secret" necessary to <a href="https://developer.officernd.com/docs/authentication" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://developer.officernd.com/docs/authentication</a> >generate an OAuth 2 token.

You'll also need to get the slug for your organisation. This can be done by going to "Settings"->"My Account".The fields "Admin Site" and "Members Portal" both show your organisation slug.
