Setting up a Node

Logo

In order to set up a particular Node within the system, you must be the officially designated representative of that Node. In the context of the Accounting System, this role is referred to as the Project Admin. See here how you can obtain that role.

Step 1: Configure OIDC Tenant for Node Authentication​

Before users can authenticate, system administrators must register the OpenID Connect (OIDC) tenant configuration with the Accounting System. As a Node Admin, you are responsible for providing this configuration. To initiate the process, a representative of your Node should contact the system administrators and share the following OIDC tenant information:

  • issuer: http://localhost:58080/realms/quarkus
  • tenant_id: default
  • client_id: backend-service
  • secret: secret
  • authorization_path: /protocol/openid-connect/auth
  • introspection_path: /protocol/openid-connect/token/introspect
  • user_info_path: /protocol/openid-connect/userinfo
  • token_path: /protocol/openid-connect/token
  • auth_server_url: http://localhost:58080/realms/quarkus
  • user_id_token_claim: voperson_id
  • service_id_token_claim: client_id
