Support Agent Notes

In order for a client to use this, they would have to have paid for the right to integrate with OPS-COM, been issued an API Key and had their integration validated by testing with us.


Server setup

The Addresses used for testing and production:

https://controller-dev1.parkadmin.com/api/OC-TOMA/v1/permits/push

https://controller-preview.operationscommander.com/api/OC-TOMA/v1/permits/push

https://controller.operationscommander.com/api/OC-TOMA/v1/permits/push


nGinx needs to have Access-Control-Allow-Origin : * to work.

The controller also needs to be behind a certificate. 



Client Setup

There is some setup related to getting clients to use the API. First, they must have an API token that exists on the API token table. THey then have to have a api_permission record that lists what kind of permission the token can has.
