Beta
The Product Catalog is currently in Beta and is not yet available to all customers. Availability is being expanded gradually. Functionality, configuration, and behavior may change before general availability.
Goal
Create API credentials that allow your application to authenticate against the Product Catalog API.
Prerequisites
Administrator rights on the Mapp Cloud account, required to create Client IDs.
An application or service that will consume the API.
Procedure
Navigate to Mapp Intelligence > Settings > Mapp Cloud > API Client IDs.
Create a new Client ID. The system generates a Client Secret on creation. Save the Client Secret in a secure location — it is shown only once.
If required, adjust the token validity time. The default is 60 minutes.
In your application, request an authentication token using the Client ID and Client Secret.
Include the token in subsequent API calls to the Product Catalog endpoints.
Result
Your application can authenticate against the Product Catalog API and perform read or write operations through the public REST endpoints.
Additional Information
A single set of Client ID credentials provides unified access across Mapp Cloud APIs, including Connect, Mapp Intelligence (Analytics), Mapp Engage, and Mapp Fashion. You do not need separate credentials for each service.
Each Client ID is bound to the user who created it. For automated integrations, use a dedicated technical user to avoid disruption when individual users are deactivated.
The Product Catalog API does not require a separate activation step. Any account with access to the Product Catalog can use the API through Client IDs created by an administrator.
