Mein Konto – Entwickler
Users can register and manage applications, App Store entries, and API keys in their Developer settings.
The steps on this page apply only to individual users. Company, classroom, and Enterprise admins should follow the steps here: Company/Classroom/Enterprise Settings: Developer..
All applications created in the Company/Classroom/Enterprise Settings count towards the company's API Limits. All applications created in the Developer Portal count toward the individual user's API Limits.
Für alle im Onshape App Store (Onshape Apps) eingereichten Anwendungen müssen den Anleitungen auf der Seite API Guide: OAuth2 befolgt und OAuth2 zur Autorisierung verwendt werden. Automatisierungsskripte (oder Anwendungen, die nicht für den Onshape App Store gedacht sind), können entweder OAuth2- oder API-Schlüssel für die Authentifizierung verwenden. Bei OAuth2 können Anwendungen Onshape-APIs für die Benutzer aufrufen. API-Schlüssel führen hingegen nur Operationen für den Onshape-Benutzer aus, der die API-Schlüssel generiert hat.
Weitere Informationen zur Arbeit mit Onshape-Anwendungen finden Sie in der Onshape-Dokumentation für API-Entwickler.
Um zu Ihren Entwickler-Einstellungen in Onshape zu navigieren, klicken Sie auf Ihr Kontobenutzer-Symbol (
) rechts oben im Onshape-Fenster. Dies öffnet ein Dropdown-Menü. Klicken Sie auf „Mein Konto“.
Klicken Sie in der Liste links auf der Seite auf Entwickler:
Auf dieser Seite haben Sie folgende Möglichkeiten:
-
Register a new OAuth application with Onshape
-
Submit properly authenticated apps to the Onshape App Store
-
View, create, and delete API keys for you individual use
-
View your API usage
- See API Limits for more information on API usage.
- Click the Annual API limits for dropdown to select a different account.
-
Notification emails are sent to all admins at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% of usage.
To create an app that opens in the Onshape UI for internal use or testing:
- Register the app with Onshape.
- Create an extension for the app in the Onshape UI.
- Create an app store entry and subscribe to it.
To publish the app to the Onshape App Store for end users:
- Authenticate with OAuth2.
- Complete the Launch Checklist
API-Schlüssel sind eine nützliche Methode, um kleine Anwendungen für den persönlichen Gebrauch zu erstellen, sodass Entwickler den Aufwand des OAuth-Workflows vermeiden können.
API-Schlüssel werden verwendet, um eine Anwendung zu authentifizieren, nicht ihre Benutzer. (OAuth2 authentifiziert eine Anwendung und Benutzer der Anwendung, indem sichergestellt wird, dass die Benutzer für den Zugriff auf Onshape autorisiert sind.)
Wenn Sie einen API-Schlüssel erstellt haben, ist er nur in dem Stack gültig, auf dem er erstellt wurde. Ein API-Schlüssel, der auf Ihrem Unternehmens-Stack (d. h. companyName.onshape.com) erstellt wurde, funktioniert nicht auf dem Production-Stack (cad.onshape.com). Administratoren können auch API-Schlüssel für Benutzer in ihrer Company verwalten: siehe Company-/Kurs-/Enterprise-Einstellungen — Entwickler.
Für individuelle Konten gilt eine Obergrenze von zwei (2) API-Schlüsseln. Löschen Sie API-Schlüssel nach Bedarf. Für Company-, Classroom- und Enterprise-Konten gibt es keine Obergrenze.

Click the OAuth applications tab on the Developer page to see a list of all your apps:
-
Click the Create new OAuth application button.
-
Fill out the form:
-
Name - Name of the application displayed to users.
-
Primary format - String that uniquely identifies your application and is a marker for the data it might store on Onshape servers (e.g.,com.example.example). Cannot be changed after the application is registered. Not displayed to users.
-
Summary - Description of the application, shown to the user when they’re asked to grant the application permission to access their data.
-
Redirect URLs - URL to which you are redirected after authentication; the landing page of your application.
- Your application must specify at least one URL used in the OAuth protocol exchanges.
-
This URL must also use SSL (a URL that begins with https), with two exceptions applicable for installed desktop applications: http://localhost:<port> and urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob.
-
Type - Application type: Integrated Cloud App, Connected Cloud App, or Connected Desktop App.
-
OAuth URL - URL used to start the OAuth2 process to authenticate the user. See Developer Docs: OAuth2 for details.
-
Should contain the URL of your deployed application.
-
This is the first URL called from the Onshape Applications page.
-
The page hosted at this URL should handle the OAuth authentication. Once your application’s server has been authenticated on behalf of the user, that user should be redirected to your applications content.
-
If you have not deployed your app yet, you can leave this field blank for local work and update it later.
All applications submitted to the Onshape App Store for public use must authenticate properly with OAuth2. See Developer Docs: OAuth2 for details.
-
-
Settings
-
Supports collaboration - Check if you wish to collaborate with other users when developing the application.
-
- Permissions - See Permission scopes below.
-
-
Click Create application.
-
Copy the OAuth secret key from the window.
You will not be able to access this secret key again. This secret is unique to you and your app. It should be protected like any sensitive password and never checked into source code.
-
The app's OAuth application entry appears with the Details tab active. Selecting the app name on the OAuth applications tab now brings you to this screen.
Use the tabs on this screen to:
-

-
Context: Some locations work in the context of a selection, such as inside a Part Studio.
-
See Supported Locations and Contexts in the Developer Docs.
-
-
Action URL: Locations that embed a UI use the action URL to define the address of the page to display. The action URL is used to specify the REST endpoint if the location is an action (context menu, toolbar item, action in dialog etc.) and the action type is GET or POST. If the location is an action and the action is Open in new window, the action URL is the URL to open in the new window.
-
See Action URL parameters in the Developer Docs for a list of parameters that can be used in this field.
-
-
Action type: Applicable for locations that do not embed UIs. Supported action types are:
-
GET - This makes a GET API call using the action URL. Parameter replacement is done on the action URL.
-
POST - This makes a POST API call using the action URL and the action body as the post body. Parameter replacement is done on both the action URL and the action body.
-
Open in new window - This opens the action URL in a new browser window. Parameter replacement is done on the action URL.
-
-
Action body: Only applicable for POST action types. The action body is passed in a POST API call and must be in a valid JSON format.
-
Show response: This is only applicable if the action type is GET or POST. When selected, the UI waits for a response and shows the response in a dialog in the UI. The response must be in a valid JSON format.
-
