    • Configure a connection in Card Data Security using an API key for authentication.

    Vorbereitungen

    Role required: admin

    Define the authentication type when setting up a Service Account in the tokenizer service. API keys are long-lived, whereas JWT bearer tokens are time-limited. The tokenizer service generates an API key after you create a Service Account. For more information, see Initial steps to setup schema and connections for Card data security (KB2238661).

    In ServiceNow, install and set up integrations to the Third-Party Systems (such as Visa Spoke or Mastercard Spoke). Card Data Security requires these integrations to function correctly. For more information, see Integrating with spokes.

    Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

    You will see records for VROLCardDataSecurity or MastercomCardDataSecurity if Visa Spoke or Mastercard Spoke are installed. These are separate to your existing third-party service connection aliases. Modify these records as required.

    Prozedur

    1. Navigate to All > Integration Hub > Connections & Credentials > Connection & Credential Aliases.
    2. Open the VROLCardDataSecurity or MastercomCardDataSecurity record.

      If you require another third-party connection, create a new Connection & Credential alias. For more information, see Create a Connection & Credential alias.

    3. In the Related Links section, select Connections > New.
    4. Follow the steps in Create an HTTP(s) connection to create a new credential record for this connection.
    5. Enter the following field value.
      Tokenizer service authentication methodCredential type
      API key API Key Credentials
    6. In the new record form for the credential, use the API key generated from our tokenizer service.

      For API key credentials, enter the API key from our tokenizer service into the API Key field for the record.
