View Published Settings for an Application

Endpoint URL: {registrationDomain} /settings/widget/list

Description

Returns a list of published settings files for the application. At least three files will be returned: a .JSON file for each settings version, and a .JSON file and .JS file where the most recently-published version is hosted for use by the Registration UI. Those three files will have filenames based on the following patterns:

/widget_data/settings/<appID>/<clientID>.json
/widget_data/settings/<appID>/<clientID>.js
/widget_data/settings/<appID>/<clientID>/<version>.json

If no parameters are included, all published settings files associated with the application will be listed. All parameters are optional, but if a version is specified the for_client_id parameter must also be included. See the settings/widget/publish endpoint for more information on published settings.

How to Create an Authentication String

To create an authentication string, combine your API client ID, a colon (:), and your client secret into a single value. For example, if your client ID is abcdefg and your client secret is hijklmnop, that value would look like this:

abcdefg:hijklmnop

Next, take the string and base64 encode it. For example, on a Mac, you can base encode the string using this command:

echo -n "abcdefg:hijklmnop" | base64

If you’re running Microsoft Windows, you can encode the string by using a Windows PowerShell command similar to this:

[Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes("abcdefg:hijklmn"))

The resulting value (e.g., YWJjZGVmZzpoaWprbG1ub3A=) should be used in your authentication header.

If you are making API calls using Postman, select Basic Auth as your identification type, then use the client ID as the username and the client secret as the password.

Before you actually try your authentication string, make sure that your API client has the all the permissions (for example, the right to read user profile information) needed to complete the API call.
