Configuring An API Proxy

Cloudspark Custom Content can call endpoints in a Client Web Application with authentication using the Custom API Proxy if the user is already authenticated in Cloudspark. The URL of the Client Web Application must be set as the API Proxy Endpoint in the Extension Settings to enable this proxy.


Configuring the Proxy URL


  1. Navigate to your Corporate Admin instance.
  2. Select Tools, then Developer Tools from the main menu.
  3. Click on the Extension Settings link.
  4. Enter the Client Web Application URL in the Api Proxy Endpoint field on the Settings card.
  5. Click the Save button.

❗️

The proxy endpoint can be set to a Client Web Application other than the Client Extension. However, the API Key sent to the proxy API will always be the 'Extension' Application API Key.
