Request Parameters

Parameter Parm Type Data Type Required Description

ContextID

Version: 2019.1.6

Query string Optional

In this scenario, the ContextID is the BusinessID of a sub-organization.

If you're creating an API within the context of a specific organization level, it's important to include the optional ContextID in the request. This allows the Community Manager developer portal to determine that the user has the correct permissions to create an API for that organization.

Notes:

  • If ContextID is provided, the deployment zone permissions are checked against the context.
  • If ContextID is not provided, the deployment zones for the top-level organization (tenant organization) are returned.
  • If the OrgKey parameter is provided, OrgKey supersedes ContextID with regard to deployment zone permissions.

OrgKey

Version: 2019.1.7

Query string Optional

If OrgKey is provided, the deployment zone permissions are checked against this context. If OrgKey is not provided, the deployment zones for the top-level organization (tenant organization) are returned.

Note: If you're not sure of the OrgKey, you could run one of these operations to get the value:
