Overview

We anticipate the Developer API may be used by the following people: developers who build apps used by Atrius customers; customers who want access to their data; and students who host resource use reduction competitions.

Prerequisites:

An Atrius user account with 'Administrator' access
A registered OAuth2.0 client app in Atrius
An authorization token created with your registered OAuth2.0 client

Add an API client

🚧 Use a separate Atrius account for API client creation

It is highly recommended that you do not use your personal Atrius user account for creating API clients. By creating an account specifically for use with the Developer API, you can ensure that the deactivation or deletion of a user account does not interfere with your API clients in the future.

To add an API client, select the 'Add an API client' button.

In the modal window, enter a client name and make the appropriate selections for your client, then select 'Save'. Your API client will appear in the main table, along with its Client ID and Client Secret.

Field	Description
API client name	Enter a client name.
Client type	Select a client type: confidential or public.
Authorization grant	Select an authorization grant: authorization code, client credentials, implicit, resource owner password-based. Grant type determines how the server responds to system calls from your app.
Redirect URIs (optional)	Enter one or more URIs (one per line) to which Atrius will allow redirects. Redirect URIs are required for 'public' client types and 'authorization code' and 'implicit' grant types, but are optional for other configurations. URIs that you provide are checked against the redirect_uri sent by the client, and the request will be refused if not in the list.
Assigned user	Select an administrator user at your organization.
