In order to be able to access your SAC systems from the Performer Suite, an OAuth client must be added to your SAC.
Your SAC > System > Administration > App Integration > Add a New OAuth Client

Two authorization methods are possible-- but you only need one working OAuth.

  1. Interactive Usage (Authorization Code Grant)
  2. Interactive Usage and API Access (Client Credential Grant)

titleWhich OAuth client type should I create?
  1. If you are using SSO for your SAC, then create create an OAuth Client with the Purpose "Interactive Usage(Authorization Code Grant) and the Redirect URI URI http://localhost:8089.
  2. Create an OAuth Client with the Purpose "Interactive Usage and API Access" (Client Credential Grant) to have a “machine-to-machine” authorization.
    (in this case, no direct login is needed inside the Performer Suite, because the protected resource does not belong to a specific user)
