Register TBC GIS with ArcGIS Portal
Esri requires that applications authenticating with ArcGIS Portal using an OAuth2 authentication flow are first registered with the portal. This is a one-time requirement that must be performed by a user with an administrative role on the instance of ArcGIS Portal.
The following steps explain how to register TBC as an application. Note that the workflow might be slightly different based on your version of ArcGIS Enterprise. Consult the Esri ArcGIS documentation or resources for more details.
Notes:
- The following instructions are intended for users familiar with ArcGIS Portal administration.
- For complete instructions on connecting to an Esri service data provider or any GIS data source, see Manage GIS Connections.
