This section explains how to attach a custom workflow to the application registration operation in the API Manager. First, see Workflow Extensions for information on different types of workflow executors.
Introduction to Application registration (Key generation) workflow
Application creation and Application registration are different workflows. After an application is created, you can subscribe to available APIs, but you get the consumer key/secret and access tokens only after registering the application. There are two types of registrations that can be done to an application: production and sandbox. You change the default application registration workflow in situations such as the following:
...
| Tip |

Before you begin, if you have changed the API Manager's default user and role, make sure you do the following changes: Change the credentials of the workflow configurations in the registry resource _system/governance/apimgt/applicationdata/workflow-extensions.xml.
a. Login to the Management console of WSO2 API Manager in https://localhost:9443/carbon.
b. Click on browse under Resources in left Navigation under Main tab.
c. Go to /_system/governance/apimgt/applicationdata/workflow-extensions.xml location in registry browser and open the workflow-extensions.xml clicking Edit as text.
d. Uncomment the following two sections and change the credentials of API Manager's default user credetials you have given. | Warning |
|---|
This configuration is provided assuming that WSO2 BPS is running with offset 2. If you are running WSO2 BPS in a different offset change the port of serviceEndpoint properties in following configuration according to the changed port offset. |
| Code Block |
|---|
<ProductionApplicationRegistration executor="org.wso2.carbon.apimgt.impl.workflow.ApplicationRegistrationWSWorkflowExecutor">
<Property name="serviceEndpoint">http://localhost:9765/services/ApplicationRegistrationWorkFlowProcess/</Property>
<Property name="username">admin</Property>
<Property name="password">admin</Property>
<Property name="callbackURL">https://localhost:8248/services/WorkflowCallbackService</Property>
</ProductionApplicationRegistration>
<SandboxApplicationRegistration executor="org.wso2.carbon.apimgt.impl.workflow.ApplicationRegistrationWSWorkflowExecutor">
<Property name="serviceEndpoint">http://localhost:9765/services/ApplicationRegistrationWorkFlowProcess/</Property>
<Property name="username">admin</Property>
<Property name="password">admin</Property>
<Property name="callbackURL">https://localhost:8248/services/WorkflowCallbackService</Property>
</SandboxApplicationRegistration> |
| Note |
|---|
Make sure to comment out the existing ProductionApplicationRegistration and SandboxApplicationRegistration executors as shown below. | Code Block |
|---|
<!--ProductionApplicationRegistration executor="org.wso2.carbon.apimgt.impl.workflow.ApplicationRegistrationSimpleWorkflowExecutor"/-->
<!--SandboxApplicationRegistration executor="org.wso2.carbon.apimgt.impl.workflow.ApplicationRegistrationSimpleWorkflowExecutor"/--> |

- Point the database that has the API Manager user permissions to BPS.
In this step you need to share the user store database in WSO2 API Manager with WSO2 BPS.
a. Copy the following datasource configuration in <API-M_HOME>/repository/conf/datasources/master-datasources.xml : | Code Block |
|---|
<datasource> <name>WSO2UM_DB</name>
<description>The datasource used by user manager</description>
<jndiConfig>
<name>jdbc/WSO2UM_DB</name>
</jndiConfig>
<definition type="RDBMS">
<configuration>
<url>jdbc:mysql://userdb.mysql-wso2.com:3306/userdb?autoReconnect=true</url>
<username>user</username>
<password>password</password>
<driverClassName>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driverClassName>
<maxActive>50</maxActive>
<maxWait>60000</maxWait>
<testOnBorrow>true</testOnBorrow>
<validationQuery>SELECT 1</validationQuery>
<validationInterval>30000</validationInterval>
</configuration>
</definition>
</datasource> |
| Note |
|---|
We are using MySQL to configure the datasources in this documentation. You can configure this according to the database you are using. Refer Setting up the Physical Database for more information. |
b. Change the datasource to point the WSO2UM_DB by changing the realm configuration in <API-M_HOME>/repository/conf/user-mgt.xml as shown below. | Code Block |
|---|
<UserManager>
<Realm>
<Configuration>
....
<Property name="dataSource">jdbc/WSO2UM_DB</Property>
</Configuration>
....
<Realm>
<UserManager> |
c. Do the configuration described in a and b in <BPS_HOME>/repository/conf/datasources/master-datasources.xml and <BPS_HOME>/repository/conf/user-mgt.xml respectively.
- Share any LDAPs, if exist.
Unzip the <API-M>/business-processes/application-registration/HumanTask/ApplicationRegistrationTask-1.0.0.zip file, update the role as follows in the ApplicationRegsitrationTask.ht file, and ZIP the ApplicationRegistrationTask-1.0.0 folder. | Code Block |
|---|
| <htd:argument name="role">
[new-role-name]
</htd:argument> |
- Restart the API Manager server.
|
Configuring the Business Process Server
- Download WSO2 Business Process Server.
Set an offset of 2 to the default BPS port in the <BPS_HOME>/repository/conf/carbon.xml file. This prevents port conflicts that occur when you start more than one WSO2 product on the same server. For more information, see Changing the Default Ports with Offset.
| Code Block |
|---|
|
<Offset>2</Offset> |
| Tip |
|---|
Tip: If you change the BPS port offset to a value other than 2 or run the API Manager and BPS on different machines (therefore, want to set the hostname to a different value than localhost), you do the following: - Search and replace the value 9765 in all the files (.epr) inside
<APIM_HOME>/business-processes folder with the new port (9763 + port offset.)
|
Open the <BPS_HOME>/repository/conf/humantask.xml file and the <BPS_HOME>/repository/conf/b4p-coordination-config.xml file and set the TaskCoordinationEnabled property to true.
| Code Block |
|---|
|
<TaskCoordinationEnabled>true</TaskCoordinationEnabled> |
Copy the following from the <API-M_HOME>/business-processes/epr folder to the <BPS_HOME>/repository/conf/epr folder.
If the <BPS_HOME>/repository/conf/epr folder does not exist, create it.
| Note |
|---|
Make sure you give the correct credentials in the <BPS_HOME>/repository/conf/epr files. |
RegistrationService.eprRegistrationCallbackService.epr
Start the BPS server and log in to its management console (https://<Server Host>:9443+<port offset>/carbon).
- Log into Management console of WSO2 BPS, select Add > BPEL under the Processes menu and upload the
<APIM_HOME>/business-processes/application-registration/BPEL/ApplicationRegistrationWorkflowProcess_1.0.0.zip file to BPS. This is the business process archive file.
- Select Add under the Human Tasks menu and upload the
<APIM_HOME>/business-processes/application-registration/HumanTask/ApplicationRegistrationTask-1.0.0.zip file to BPS. This is the human task archived file.
Configuring the API Manager
Open the <API-M_HOME>/repository/deployment/server/jaggeryapps/admin/site/conf/site.json file and configure "workFlowServerURL" under "workflows" to point to the BPS server (e.g. "workFlowServerURL": "https://localhost:9445/services/")
| Code Block |
|---|
{
.....
"context": "/admin",
"request_url": "READ_FROM_REQUEST",
"tasksPerPage": 10,
"allowedPermission": "/permission/admin/manage/apim_admin",
"workflows": {
"workFlowServerURL": "https://localhost:9445/services/",
}
.....
} |
Engaging the WS Workflow Executor in the API Manager
First, enable the application registration workflow.
