Step 3: Deploying the App Marketplace
You have now verified your Organization Credentials and Provisioned Users within the Validic system, now you want to begin gathering user data. Validic enables your users to connect an app/device and permission the use of that data via what Validic refers to as the App Marketplace.
Validic provides two ways of deploying the marketplace. All customers may deploy the Validic standard HTML5 App Marketplace and our Enterprise customers may also deploy the custom marketplace, which allows our clients to build out the Marketplace with a consistent, cohesive user experience.
Validic Standard HTML5 App Marketplace:
The Validic Standard HTML5 version of the App Marketplace provides developers with a quick and easy connection process to access data from our integration partners without any additional development work. You simply need to send your users to the Validic Standard App Marketplace. The Validic App Marketplace lists all the available apps and allows users to sync and authorize access to their app data. Through the App Marketplace your users will be prompted to connect a device and will be walked through an authorization process that permissions the use of their data to you.
You need to construct and send the user to this URL for the user to access the Validic
App Marketplace:
Custom App Marketplace Deployment:
Our Enterprise customers may also design and create a custom implementation of your own App Marketplace. To authenticate users, you will need your Organization’s ID, your Organization’s Access Token, and the User Access Token created when you provisioned the user. Validic provides our Enterprise customers with one simple API call to access all of the appropriate URL’s and information needed to build the custom App Marketplace native to your platform leveraging your existing look and feel enabling you to create a consistent, cohesive user experience.
Please view our API Documentation for further information on how to deploy the App Marketplace, example calls, and to see a live demo of the Validic Standard HTML5 App Marketplace.
