Question

Authentication process

Hi team, 
We are trying to use the adobe api for document generation, pdf services and signin. For the authentication purpose in the documentation it is mentioned like we need to upload a public key and certificate to the adobe I/O console. While I wasn't able to find the I/O console and add the integration as mentioned in the docs.

 

But I tried another method like adding the I/O management or the I/O event service to my project and used the public key pair generated in that process. The API works fine when using that private key to generate the JWT and access token. Is this the current procedure or we need to use the open-ssl and generate a certificate and public key and upload them in the console? If so, please provide us with the details of where to upload the private key in the console. As far as we checked, when we add any API services, we get the service account authentication credentials and we don't see any such thing called the upload public key to the integration. Also we could not find the term integrations as well in the console.

    I never upload a key, but rather use the key created when using the create credentials flow. Have you tried that?

    Thanks for the response! We are currently using the key that we got when we added the I/O event or I/O management API to my project. That works fine for us. But we need to know whether that is the correct way to get the public key pair for JWT  generation. Since in the documentation there is nothing mentioned like that. It was mentioned only about the  Adobe I/O console and the integration. But we couldn't find anything like that.

     

    As you mentioned, the key we got when creating the credentials flow doesn't seem to work fine. We used the key that we  got when adding the I/O management API service to my project.

    I'm honestly confused by what you mean. 🙂 There is no "I/O event or I/O management" API related to Acrobat Services. In the developer console, you can add Acrobat Services as an API and get credentials that way, and that's the only way I'm aware of.
