Problem

How to update partner certificates through API in B2Bi

Resolution

1. Find Partner ID, based on the partner name

You can get the partner ID using the following ways:

a> https://<b2bi server host>:6443/rest/v1/tradingPartners?filter=partyName%3D'<partner_name>'&limit=10&offset=0&orderBy=partyName

b> curl --user "username:password" -k -X 'GET' -k 'https://<b2bi server host>:6443/api/v1/tradingPartners?filter=partyName%3D'\''partner_name'\''&limit=10&offset=0&orderBy=partyName' -H 'accept: application/json'

c> Go to UI page -> Click on the partner's name -> check the id mentioned in end of the URL (its a partner ID).

2. Import certificate for the partner.

- The REST API to import a certificate is not available through SWAGGER. More information around the API can be found here in the standard documentation:

https://<b2bi server host>:6443/apidocs/resource_TradingPartnersSecurityResource.html

- This REST API doesn't take a JSON structure for import, but an actual certificate file (transferred as an application/octet-stream content type).

- Place the required certificate at any path on your B2Bi machine and run the below curl command from that path:

curl --user "username:password" -k -H "Content-Type:application/octet-stream" -H "accept:application/json" --data-binary @<certificate_name> -X PUT https://<b2bi server host>:6443/api/v1/tradingPartners/security/<partner_id>/certificate/import
