Creating An App-or-Client ID for your ArcGIS Organization

Purpose

This article step-by-step guide to creating ArcGIS Enterprise App IDs or ArcGIS Online (AGOL) Client IDs and configuring their redirects. This will be important when configuring authentication for your ArcGIS Organization and GEO Jobe’s products.

Step-By-Step Instructions

The steps will differ depending on whether you are using ArcGIS Online or Enterprise. Please select the appropriate expandable content arrow that best corresponds to your organization type:

Please Note: This will only need to be completed once, as each of our products can run off of the Application that is created.

Step-by-step guide for ArcGIS Enterprise

From the “Content” tab, navigate to the "My Content" sub-tab, select “Add Item” → “An Application”

Creating your application
1. Select the "Application" option in the “Add an application” prompt.
2. Please select the “Other Application” option
3. You item can be named whatever you would like.
4. Provide your application with tag names that will assist with locating your application item in the future.
  1. We recommend any product names associated with this item ( i.e. “Admin Tools”, “Backup My Org”, etc.) and “GEO Jobe”. This will help if the item ever needs to be found in the future.
5. Click “Add Item” when done.

Go to the "Settings" Tab of your newly created application.

Scroll to the "Application" section in “Settings”.

Next locate the “Client ID” portion.
1. If you are using Admin Tools for ArcGIS Enterprise, this is what will need to be sent to GEO Jobe for us to create your build.
2. For our other products, you will need to use this when setting up an identity for this ArcGIS Organization in the “Managed Identities” screen of that product.

Configure the Redirect URLs:
1. Finally, you will need to setup the Redirect URLs. You can do this by selecting the “+” icon and adding the redirect. Once completed they will be automatically saved.
2. The Redirect URLs should be where you are hosting the products in your environment. This is the URL users will go to when accessing your instances of the products.

THIS IS AN EXAMPLE DOMAIN!

Please add the real domain you will use to access your GEO Jobe products to this Redirect URI list. Ensure that '/' is not included at the end of your domain as this could potentially cause the software to not connect to your ArcGIS Organization.

If you’re using https instead of http or a different port, the Redirect URI will need to be exact.

You should now have the OAuth App ID and Redirects necessary to use GEO Jobe’s products.

Step-by-step guide for ArcGIS ONLINE

From the main “Contents” tab, navigate to "My Content" tab, and select "New Item".

Select the "Application" option.

Select the "Other Application" option in the next step

You can name the item whatever you would like.
Next locate the “Client ID” portion.
1. If you are using Admin Tools for ArcGIS Enterprise, this is what will need to be sent to GEO Jobe for us to create your build.
2. For our other products, you will need to use this when setting up an identity for this ArcGIS Organization in the “Managed Identities” screen of that product.

Go to the Settings Tab for the Application Item

Configure the Redirect URLs:
1. Finally, you will need to setup the Redirect URLs. You can do this by selecting the “+” icon and adding the redirect. Once completed they will be automatically saved.
2. The Redirect URLs should be where you are hosting the products in your environment. This is the URL users will go to when accessing your instances of the products.

Great! You should now have the OAuth App ID and Redirects configuration that is necessary to run our tools.
