Connectors

Catalyst Connectors manage the access token, by refreshing it automatically on expiry. In the background, it will be using the Catalyst Cache for its implementation. A connector is illustrated with the following code block.

Ensure the following packages are imported:

    

        
copy
        

            

        
    
    

         import org.json.simple.JSONObject; 
import com.zc.auth.connectors.ZCConnection; 
import com.zc.auth.connectors.ZCConnector;

    

    

        
copy
        

            

        
    
    

         JSONObject authJson = new JSONObject();
// The json object holds the client id, client secret, refresh token and refresh url
authJson.put("client_id","{client_id}"); 
authJson.put("client_secret","{client_secret}");
authJson.put("auth_url","{auth_url}"); 
authJson.put("refresh_url","{refresh_url}"); 
//If referesh token is not provided, then code should be provided to generate the refresh token. 
authJson.put("refresh_token","{refresh_token}");
JSONObject connectorJson = new JSONObject(); 
connectorJson.put("CRMConnector",authJson); 
// It can have multiple service connector information 
ZCConnection conn = ZCConnection.getInstance(connectorJson); 
ZCConnector crmConnector = conn.getConnector("CRMConnector"); 
// Gets the access Token 
String accessToken = crmConnector.getAccessToken();
