01 - Allowing Universal Migrator to Authenticate with your API

In order for Universal Migrator to push data to your system, you should select one of the authentication methods below.

Option 1: OAuth2 Authentication (Recommended)

If using this method, you should provision Universal Migrator as an OAUTH2 application with the following configuration: 


  1. Application_Name: Universal Migrator 
  2. Application_Scopes: All / System 
  3. Redirect_Uri:  https://oauth-proxy.com/v1/oauth
  4. Api Limits:  1000 Requests per minute per authorized token


You should then provide our team with the following application:
  1. Application_Key
  2. Application_Secret
  3. OAuth Uri

Option 2:  Browser Authentication

As an alternative, you may leverage browser authentication.  In this model, a user will log into a specialized browser, Universal Migrator will record the associated session/cookie information for that login, and will send traffic to your application using those cookies.  In this mode, all traffic coming from Universal Migrator will look like regular traffic from a regular user.  No special considerations are necessary.
