Integration Certificates for API Authentication

Introduction

You can now use your own (client-side) certificates in AdaptiveWork for authorizing outbound API calls (webhooks) from AdaptiveWork.

Notes:

  • Inbound calls to AdaptiveWork are not supported
  • Authentication certificates are not supported by other AdaptiveWork integrations, such as Jira, Salesforce, Data Loader, etc.
  • This solution requires IP whitelisting. AdaptiveWork will provide a range of addresses to use in firewalls, gateways, etc.

How it Works

Prerequisites

  • The certificate must reside in a .cer or .pfx file, which is SSL-based.
  • The certificate should include standard information like a digital signature, expiration date, name of the client application, name of CA (Certificate Authority), revocation status, SSL/TLS version number, serial number, etc., and all all structured using the X.509 standard

Setup

  1. In AdaptiveWork, open Settings > Extensions, and scroll down to Integration Certificates.
