Preparation
Before you start on these modules, please make sure you have the following resources/tools in place.
A freshly created sandbox environment of the NewStore Platform. Please request a blank system vis your point of contact in NewStore.
An Apple Business Manager Account (ABM), see the separate document “Application Deployments using ABM”
Postman or a similar tool to perform API calls.
A data storage system that allows you to upload files that can be made available publicly or via a signed URL (e.g. AWS S3)
A system enabling you to host and run simple integration applications that respond to a NewStore webhook callback in a defined manner. (e.g. AWS Lambda + API Gateway)
As you make different API calls, you will need to generate an API Credentials token. Use this documentation to create a new credential. Make sure you select the right scope/privilege while creating the API credentials, as you will not be able to modify it later.
Important
As you follow the documentation you will see URLs specified as
https://{{tenant}}.newstore.net. This is only an example. Your URL will replace{{tenant}}with the name of your sandbox - such as -https://partnerenablement-ex.p.newstore.net/.
