This section describes how to configure the connector to authenticate with Yammer. For more information about authenticating with Yammer, refer to the Yammer developer documentation.
NOTE: There is no need to complete this procedure if you ran the OAuth configuration tool when the connector was installed.
To configure authentication with Yammer
oauth_tool.cfg
in a text editor.Set the following parameters:
ProxyHost
|
(Optional) The host name or IP address of the proxy server that the connector must use to access Yammer. |
ProxyPort
|
(Optional) The port of the proxy server that the connector must use to access Yammer. |
AppKey
|
The application key you obtained when you created an application to represent the connector. |
AppSecret
|
The application secret you obtained when you created an application to represent the connector. |
RedirectUrl
|
Micro Focus recommends using the default value for this parameter, but it must match the redirect URL you entered when you created the application to represent the connector. |
At the command line, type the following command and press ENTER:
oauth_tool.exe oauth_tool.cfg OAuthTool
The OAuth configuration tool runs, and opens a Web browser at the Yammer login page.
Authenticate with Yammer as a Yammer verified admin.
Yammer asks whether to allow the application permission to use the account.
Accept the request.
The OAuth tool generates a file named oauth.cfg
. This file contains the configuration parameters necessary to authenticate with Yammer. You can then include these settings in the connector configuration file. For example:
[MyTask] < "oauth.cfg" [OAUTH]
For information about including configuration parameters from another file, see Include an External Configuration File.
