Need

Initially requested by Nick Cappadona:

These accounts will be used by our apps to programmatically authenticate via API endpoints and retrieve an OKAPI token.

Here's an initial list of applications, but by no means is it exhaustive:
* MARC order import
* Offline circ transactions
* Spine labeling
* LTS workflows for batch & automation

Potential Naming Conventions

  • machine_
  • app_
  • bot_

Account Creation Sample

  • Last name (app_foliotest)
  • Patron group (zCornellAdmin)
  • Username (app_foliotest) - an account can be created without a Username, at least in Honeysuckle; but it's difficult to set up a password without it, especially if the account is not tied to a unique email address
  • Email (library-systems@cornell.edu) - whoever's creating the account should first enter their email address, in order to create a password

Shared-Folio DMG

  • No labels
