Configure OAuth2 authentication with Guidewire Hub to enable Agent Portal access to InsuranceNow REST APIs.
About this task
Every caller application must be registered with Guidewire
Hub. The information provided during the registration process varies based on whether the
application is a browser-based application or a service application.
Procedure
-
Determine which OAuth 2.0 flow the application will use. The auth flow must be one of
the following:
- Authorization code flow (browser-based app with JS client and trusted server)
- Authorization code flow with PKCE (browser-based app with JS client and no trusted
server)
- Client credentials flow (server-to-server integrations; in InsuranceNow this uses a
service account mapping for the client application).
For more information, see
Choosing OAuth 2.0 flows for InsuranceNow.
-
In the Guidewire Community, create a Support Task case using the GWHUB-0110 –
Create, Update or Delete Guidewire Hub Application template and specify that you
need an InsuranceNow REST API registration with Guidewire Hub using the desired
auth flow.
For more information, see Community Case Templates.
Guidewire sends you a list of required information based on the selected auth
flow. Provide this information to Guidewire. Guidewire registers the application for OAuth
based on the information provided. Guidewire will also send information to you that you
need to further configure authentication, such as a client ID and client secret.
Once
you have the authorization information from Guidewire, you can proceed with
authentication configuration.
