21.0 REST Generic Fullfiller

This chapter focuses on specific configuration-related information regarding the REST Generic fufiller.

The REST Generic fulfiller supports Oauth 2.0 and has three different authentication types: basic, generate bearer token, and enter access token. When using the bearer token authentication method, you must specify the username and password, then the OAuth2 client ID and secret for API access to the target application. The process for configuring the applications and generating the client ID and secret will vary depending on your target application. For additional information about getting the client ID and secret, contact the application owner.
