Authentication

Authentication is done through service accounts connected to a customer in the Å Insite Portal. If you are a partner/supplier/sub-contractor you still need to have a registered customer entity for managing service accounts. Contact support at support@ainsite.io if you need to register a customer in the Portal.

APIs

To access our API's you will need a service account (app) with a signed access token. The service account must also be authorized to access resources (meters etc.). You can manage service accounts on the customer page under "API" menu item in the Å Insite portal.

  1. Create an app with a familiar name. After creation click on the app to open app-menu.
  2. [App-menu] Request a new access token.
  3. [App-menu] If all the resources (portfolios/sites) are internal to your own customer, you can check the "Allow access to own customer account?" checkbox.
  4. [App-menu] If any access is granted by other customers, you can choose service account access in the table at the bottom. If the access needed is not listed in app menu access table, then you must contact that customer and request access to their resources They must then grant you partner access to their customer/portfolios/sites.

There are two ways for a customer to grant you partner access. (Partner Settings) Partner is just another word for a Portal customer that has a partner role. (ie. Partner Id is actually just your Customer Id) 1. Enable customers to search for your partner name in a global partner list. 2. Copy and send your Partner ID to the customer so that they can grant you access
