Account onboarding using Axway SecureTransport APIs and the accountSetup feature ensures a streamlined and efficient user setup process. This video clip demonstrates how to onboard accounts using the accountSetup API in Axway SecureTransport.
We're now going to create the same flow but using the account setup API. Here is my post for account setup, and you'll see that it basically contains the account, the transfer sites, the route, the subscriptions—all the objects or most of the objects anyway that you would need for your flow. So, the JSON is more complex. We'll just issue that API.
Okay, the response is a little bit different from the normal APIs. We get an array of messages basically showing you all the different objects that we created.
To complete our setup, we do have to use the patch method, which is basically modifying the route or the package route to use the subscription that was created. So, there is this extra step. We'll just use the patch command.
There it is, 204 is success, and now we have the exact same flow as we were demonstrating previously using all the individual objects. Here, we could do it all the same with two commands, exactly the same result, exactly the same flow, just showing you the difference really between the two methods of creating your flows.
