Manual Agent Registration

If you are having issues starting or registering a new or existing Agent installation, you can use Manual Agent Registration.

Prerequisites

  • DataCloud or Avalanche Subscription
  • Install Integration Agent 3.1.0 or later.
  • Enable an API Password for the User registering the Agent.

Step 1: Retrieve a User Code

  1. Open the browser.
  2. Navigate to: https://api.im.actiandatacloud.com/v2/api/device/code?client_id=integration-agent&host=[agent machine hostname]
    where [agent machine hostname] is the hostname of your agent.

RESPONSE:

{
"approved": false,
"user_code": "[user code]",
"hostname": "[agent hostname]",
"device_code": "[device code]",
"verification_uri_complete": "[verification uri complete]",
"client_id": "integration-agent",
"expires_in": 599,
"interval": 15,
"owner": {
"id": "[user id]",
"name": "[username]"
}
}

Step 2: Activate the Device Code

  1. Copy the url from the Step 1 response in [verification uri complete].
  2. Paste in a new browser tab and press Enter.
  3. You will be asked to authenticate with Username and API Password (see Prerequisites above).

RESPONSE:

# Integration Manager Connection Info
im.base-url=[base url]
im.client-id=[client id]
im.client-secret=[client secret]
im.device-code=[device code]
im.user-code=[user code]

Step 3: Update the Agent

  1. Copy and paste connection info into the /IntegrationAgent/conf/application.properties file. Make sure to delete/overwrite any existing im.* values that may be present. Duplicate entries will yield inconsistent results.
  2. Start/restart Agent. It will now register itself.
