OAuth 2.0 for Exact Online
This section describes the steps to configure Alteryx Analytics Cloud (AAC) to integrate with your Exact Online deployment using OAuth 2.0 to authenticate.
Create OAuth 2.0 Client App in Exact Online
In Exact Online, you must create the client app that AACAAC uses OAuth 2.0 to access and connect to your Exact Online data.
Steps:
Log in to the Exact Online account in which you want the client app to be created.
Navigate to Manage my apps and click the + icon.
In the App registration field, provide the app name and the REDIRECT URI.
In the Authorization Details page, complete the listed fields with the appropriate information.

Name of the APP
Display name of the app. Suggested:
Alteryx application
Redirect URI
Enter a valid URI. Example:
https://ayxpreview.alteryxcloud.com/oauth2/callback
Client ID
Internal identifier of the client app
Webhook secret

Client secret
Secret used by the client app to connect
To save the changes, click Save. The OAuth 2.0app is generated.
To make the app public, review and edit the changes accordingly.
After the Exact Online client app is created, you must create an OAuth 2.0 client in AACAAC, which is used to integrate with the client app that you created above.
Note
You must create one OAuth 2.0 client in AACAAC for each Exact Online client app that you wish to use.
Steps:
Login to the AACAAC as a workspace administrator.
In the left nav bar, select User menu > Admin console > OAuth2.0 Clients.
In the OAuth2.0 Clients page, click Register OAuth2.0 Client.
Specify the new client. Apply the following values:

Note
You must create a separate connection for each OAuth 2.0 client that is available in AACAAC.
