When registering your application on maestrano.com, as an application provider, you will be given an access to a Maestrano App Provider Dashboard. The technical aspects of the integration can be found in your API portal (API tab in the menu). You will find here different tabs: Production, Sandbox1, Sandbox2, etc. The "Sandbox" tabs should be used during the integration phase, and to connect our production environment to all you different non-production environments. The "Production" tab should be used for the release of your application on maestrano.com, and should be connected to your production environment.

1 - Where can I find the credentials I will have to use?
In your API portal, you will find the Production application credentials (to be used once the application goes live) and the Sandbox credentials (to be used during the integration phase, and for all non-production environment). Several Sandbox environments can be set up (with different credentials for every sandbox) if you need to manage several test environments; just ask our team if your need more sandboxes.
2 - How does the metadata endpoint work?
In order to understand your application and configure webhooks properly, Maestrano expects you to create a special "metadata" endpoint exposing the configuration of your application preferences in terms of Single Sign-On, data sharing subscriptions, webhooks etc.
...
Once setup, enter the URL of your metadata endpoint into your Maestrano App Provider dashboard then click on 'Update/Fetch'.
3 - What to include in my metadata endpoint?
The metadata endpoint should return a JSON document describing your configuration. Note that the call initiated by Maestrano to retrieve your metadata is authenticated via HTTP Basic authentication using your own API credentials (shared secret).

4 - How
...
can I test my integration?
The sandbox One of the sandboxes application should be used during the integration phase, or for any non-production environment. You can add the application to your dashboard easily by clicking on the Start Sandbox App button and then choosing the appropriate company.
Once added to your dashboard, you can initiate the SSO process by starting the application, clicking on the application tiletitle.
To test the data sharing end-to-end between your application and another application from the Maestrano platform, you will have to launch an other application on your dashboard. When records are created/updated in a system, notifications will be sent to the other applications from your Maestrano eco-system.
