The SaaS API uses OAuth 2.0 with a scoped access token. The declared scope in this integration is oauth.readonly, enabling retrieval of installed locations and related data.
In Abyssale, configure the OAuth credentials and redirect URIs to request access to the SaaS API. Store tokens securely and rotate them as needed.
– GET /oauth/installedLocations: Retrieve Abyssale installation locations. – POST /oauth/locationToken: Exchange a code for an access token. – saas/location.write: Update a SaaS location’s data. – PUT /update-saas-subscription/:locationId: Update a location’s subscription. – POST /enable-saas/:locationId: Enable SaaS features for a location.
Trigger: Abyssale connects and discovers installed locations via GET /oauth/installedLocations.
Actions: store location data in your app and prepare for token exchange and updates.
GET /oauth/installedLocations
locationId, locationName, status
Trigger: tokens nearing expiry require refresh.
Actions: call POST /oauth/locationToken to obtain new access tokens and refresh automatically.
POST /oauth/locationToken
access_token, refresh_token, expires_in
Trigger: changes to SaaS subscriptions or location data.
Actions: update location data with saas/location.write and manage subscriptions with PUT /update-saas-subscription/:locationId.
saas/location.write; PUT /update-saas-subscription/:locationId
locationId, planCode, status
Faster go-to-market with automated asset delivery triggered by real-time SaaS data.
Centralized control over assets and subscriptions across endpoints without manual updates.
Low-maintenance integration with secure, token-based authentication and automatic token refresh.
This section defines the core elements and processes used to connect Abyssale with the SaaS API, including OAuth, tokens, endpoints, and data flows.
OAuth 2.0 framework enabling secure delegated access to APIs without sharing user credentials.
Short-lived token used to authorize API calls on behalf of a user or app.
Token used to obtain a new access token without requiring user re-authentication.
A specific URL that exposes a defined API action or resource.
Connect order events from SaaS API to Abyssale to auto-create, update, and deliver assets in seconds.
Sync catalog updates from SaaS API into Abyssale so assets always reflect current pricing and variants.
Use previews and versioning to validate assets automatically before publishing to clients.
Register your Abyssale app in the SaaS API developer portal and note the client ID and secret.
Enter redirect URI, request the correct scopes, and test the connection to SaaS API.
Run end-to-end tests, verify tokens, and monitor for errors before going live.
No heavy coding is required for basic integration. Use Abyssale’s integration panel to configure the OAuth flow and map endpoints. For advanced automations, you can leverage Zapier or custom middleware without touching core code. This approach keeps setup approachable while allowing complex workflows as your needs grow.
The SaaS API connection uses the oauth.readonly scope to fetch installed locations and related data. If you anticipate making changes, you would need the appropriate write permissions as defined by your API provider. Always apply the principle of least privilege.
Token refresh is handled through a token exchange process. Use POST /oauth/locationToken to obtain a fresh access token and, if provided, a new refresh token. Your app should automatically refresh tokens before expiry to maintain a seamless connection. Keep your refresh tokens secure and rotate them periodically.
For a solid starting point, begin with GET /oauth/installedLocations to discover installed Abyssale locations. Then use POST /oauth/locationToken to obtain tokens and saas/location.write to update location data. Depending on your needs, you may also use PUT /update-saas-subscription/:locationId to adjust subscriptions. Document each step so your team can reproduce the setup.
Yes. You can use Zapier’s OAuth connection flow to connect Abyssale and SaaS API and automate cross-application tasks. The Zapier app connector can orchestrate asset creation, updates, and subscription changes across apps with minimal code. Utilize webhooks and polling to keep data in sync and trigger automations on relevant events.
Check with SaaS API provider for sandbox or test environments. Use test credentials to validate token exchange and data flows without impacting production data. Upon successful tests, migrate to production credentials with proper token management. Always audit your test results and monitor logs for anomalies.
Security is built on TLS encryption, token-based authentication, and secure storage of credentials. Rotate keys and refresh tokens regularly, apply least-privilege scopes, and monitor access with audit logs. Follow best practices for API security and data protection.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
