4.6 Completing the Integration Between Secure API Manager and Access Manager

To finish the deployment of Secure API Manager you must complete the integration with Access Manager. Ensure that you have created the OAuth2 application in Access Manager before proceeding. For more information, see Section 3.0, Integrating Secure API Manager with Access Manager.

The remaining task is to configure Secure API Manager to access and use the Access Manager OAuth2 application. You perform these steps on only one appliance to complete the integration. The configuration steps you perform and information on the Access Manager Integration tab are global. It does not matter which appliance management console you use to complete the following task.

NOTE:Access Manager uses the term Identity Server and Secure API Manager uses the term Identity Provider. However, both terms refer to the Access Manager Identity Server.

To configure Secure API Manager to use the Access Manager OAuth2 application:

  1. Log in to the appliance management console for any appliance using the root user and password you set during the deployment of the appliance. For more information, see Deploying the Secure API Manager Appliances.
