Creating an Integration Application

Overview

ROMA Connect uses integration applications to isolate resources of different users in the same instance. Resources (such as data sources, APIs, topics, and products) created in a ROMA Connect instance must belong to an integration application. By default, IAMusers can view and manage only the integration applications and resources created by themselves and a primary account can view and manage all resources created by IAM users under it.

To share resources created by yourself to other IAM users, you can authorize the integration applications to other IAM users. For details, see Configuring Integration Application Authorization.

Creating an Integration Application

Log in to the ROMA Connect console. On the Instances page, click View Console next to a specific instance.
In the navigation pane, choose Integration Applications. In the upper right corner of the page, click Create Integration Application.

In the dialog box displayed, enter the application information and click OK.

Parameter	Description
Name	Set an application name as required.
Description	Enter the description of the application. This parameter is optional.
Key	Enter the key of the integration application. If this parameter is not specified, the system automatically generates a key.
Secret	Enter the secret of the integration application. If this parameter is not specified, the system automatically generates a secret.

Viewing and Editing an Integration Application

On the Integration Applications page of the ROMA Connect console, click the integration application name to view its details.

**Table 1** Integration application information
Content	Description
Basic Information	Basic parameters of the application, including Name, Description, Integration Application Type, Created, Key, and Secret. Key and Secret can be used to authorize the access to application resources. You can modify Name and Description as needed. You can click on the right of Secret to view secret information. You can reset the secret when required. After the secret is reset, the old secret will automatically become invalid. For accounts, the integration applications are all self-created applications. For IAM users, the integration applications created by themselves are called self-created applications, and the integration applications created and authorized by other IAM users are called authorized applications.
Objects	You can view, create, edit, and delete resources in an integration application, including data sources, APIs, topics, and devices. For details, see data source, API, topic, and device usage guides.
