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, IAM users without the Tenant Administrator permission can view and manage only the integration applications and resources created by themselves, while accounts assigned the permission can view and manage all resources created by their IAM users.

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

  1. Log in to the ROMA Connect console. On the Instances page, click View Console next to a specific instance.
  2. In the navigation pane, choose Integration Applications. In the upper right corner of the page, click Create Integration Application.
  3. In the dialog box displayed, enter the application information and click OK.
