4. Request API Access

After signing in to the TE API Developer Portal, you will need to register your application to generate your Client ID and Client secret.

1. Click Home, TE Product Data API. Click on Request access button.
2. Click on Create a new application link and fill in the form with details of your application. Please include your Company Name as part of your application name in the Application field; this will allow TE to easily identify your application. The Application URL and OAuth 2.0 fields are optional.
3. Click Create.
4. Select the API Instance (either QA or Production - see the next section for more details). Click on the number below the instance to select.
5. Select the Standard SLA Tier.
6. Click Request Access again and your application will then be created.
7. Once your request is approved by TE, you will receive an email informing that you now have access.

When you register an application, the application is assigned a unique Client ID and Client secret; these are your application's security credentials, similar to a User ID and Password. You must use the Client ID and Client secret when you call any of the API endpoints to identify your application. Check the API description for the details on how to supply these credentials when making an API request.

Your Client ID and Client secret can be found by clicking on "My applications" from the TE API Developer Portal homepage.

5. QA and Production Access

QA API Version

You will initially have access to the QA version of the TE Product Data API, which allows developers to test their application against test data and TE test systems. The data in the QA and Production instances will be similar, but the Production instance will contain the most current data.

Below is the base URL endpoint for the QA API version.

https://api-qa.te.com/api/v1/...

Production API Version

In order to upgrade to the Production version of the API, please follow the steps above in 4-Request API Access. You may skip steps 3 and 4, and instead just select the Application you previously created from the drop-down list. Then select "Production" for the API Instance and follow the remaining steps. TE will approve requests for the Production API version only after you have gone through testing of your application against the QA API version.

Below is the base URL endpoint for the Production API version.
