InEight - Partner connection
The InEight — Partner connector manages authentication credentials and API
configuration for secure communication with the InEight API platform. Pair a single connection with various InEight operations to perform unique actions-such as managing employees, equipment, materials, contracts, estimates, and project controls—within your InEight tenant. The connector automatically handles OAuth 2.0 authentication, manages token refresh, and ensures sensitive credentials are securely stored.
Connection tab
This tab defines all the essential fields required for setting up your InEight — Partner connection. All fields are required:
Base URL - The root endpoint for all InEight API requests. Example: https://api.ineight.com
Tenant Prefix - Your InEight tenant prefix, assigned by InEight. Example: yourcompany
Subscription Key - API subscription key
provided by your InEight administrator. Securely stored.
Client ID - OAuth 2.0 Client ID registered for API access.
Client Secret - OAuth 2.0 Client Secret for OAuth authentication. Securely stored.
Tenant ID - Azure AD tenant identifier associated with your organization.
OAuth 2.0 authentication flow
- The connector sends credentials to the InEight authentication service.
- The service returns an access token.
- The connector automatically extracts and applies the token to all InEight API
requests. - Token refresh is handled transparently to maintain secure connectivity.
Access key and Rate limiting
The connector supports an optional Access Key field that provides enhanced
performance and rate limiting capabilities:
-
With Access Key: When a valid access key is provided and verified against the
subscription database, the connector operates without rate limiting and delays. -
Without Access Key: The connector applies to standard rate limiting with
appropriate delays to ensure optimal API performance.
