Assign users

A subscription represents a customer's entitlement to a product and determines their access to that product, as well as their payment schedule. Subscriptions are created when the customer places an order. A company can own one subscription to any given product. After you create a subscription, you can assign users to and unassign users from the subscription, depending on how the purchased edition is configured. 

Company Administrators can assign or unassign users to their subscription through the user interface. See Assign applications to users.

After you create a company, users, and have created a subscription, you can assign (add) or unassign (remove) users to that subscription through the API. AppDirect supports an OAuth-authenticated REST interface that allows API users to read, create, edit, and delete marketplace records that describe a user's account and the user's access to existing subscriptions.

Important

The subscription assignment API requires either the password or authorization code OAuth 2.0 grant type to successfully authenticate. For more information on OAuth 2.0 and grant types, see API authentication.
