/registerApp: Register App

  • URL: https://[root]/oauth2/registerApp(POST only)

Example Usage

https://www.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/oauth2/registerApp

Description

The register app operation (POST only) registers an app item with the portal. App registration results in an APPID and APPSECRET (also known as client_id and client_secret in OAuth speak, respectively) being generated for that app. Upon successful registration, a Registered App type keyword gets appended to the app item.

Available to the item owner.

Request parameters

ParameterDetails
[Common Parameters]

For a complete listing, see Common parameters.

itemId

The ID of the item being registered. The item must be owned by the user invoking this operation, otherwise the call will be rejected.

Example: itemId=e52db2cdc16640a0b1c69727abdf48c8

appType

The type of app that was registered indicating whether it's a browser app, native app, server app, or a multiple interface app.

Values: browser | native | server| multiple

Example: appType=browser

redirect_uris

The URIs where the access_token or authorization code will be delivered upon successful authorization. The redirect_uri specified during authorization must match one of the registered URIs, otherwise authorization will be rejected.

A special value of urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob can also be specified for authorization grants. This will result in the authorization code being delivered to a portal URL (/oauth2/approval). This value is typically used by apps that don't have a web server or a custom URI scheme where the code can be delivered.

The value is a JSON string array.

Example:

[
  "https://app.foo.com",
  "urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob"
]

Response properties

The response represents the registered app and is the same as that of the Registered App resource.
