OVERVIEW
This post is here to clarify the good practices for using the Portal : Account creation, Account login, Api Key creation, Go Live request.
CREATING AN ACCOUNT
As a Partner, you will have to create an account on the Portal by clicking here in order to access our APIs.
As an Accor employee, you don't have to create an account.
LOGIN TO THE PORTAL
As a Partner, you will have to login to the Portal by clicking "Login for external users".
As an Accor employee, you will have to login to the Portal by clicking "Login with IDP".
ACCESSING AN API
Once connected, you can easily use any API in just a few steps.
Step 1 : Create a Team App
- you can create a Team App.
Step 2 : Tick the needed APIs in the list
Step 3 : Click the eye icon
Step 4 : Retrieve your "API Key" for test environment
Step 5 : Access the API by using your API Key on test environment
GOING LIVE
All the APIs provided on this API Portal are within the Accor Test environment.
It means that once you'll have finalized your development on Test environment , you'll need to validate your development with Accor team and define whether security tests need to be performed on your platform. (security tests coud take up to 60 days to be performed)
Then, if everything is validated on Test environment, you'll need to request a Prod validation committee (see section below) to use Accor APIs in production.
- The Prod validation committee will occur in the next 7 days following your request.
- The Go live (production credentials,..) will occur 7 days after the Prod validation committee.
Step 6 : Request a "Prod Validation Committee"
You can use the "Go Live" button, attached to your Sandbox App, to submit your request.
Then, we'll review your request and schedule a short committee review with you to go over the shared elements above.
Reminder : This committee is here to make sure that all Partners going live meet the Accor Requirements & Rules.
