Accessing the API console

Access the API console by opening your marketplace app in the Sitecore Cloud Portal. Click the API console link in the top nav.

Explore your region and environment

In the top-right nav, an expandable panel will show you details about your current marketplace. If you selected a Marketplace, requests are made as your Portal user. If you selected a specific user from the context selector, the interface indicates you are making requests as that user.

Portal user context and default users

The default user you are authenticated as does not exist in the system. Your Marketplace is new and contains no users. To verify this, navigate to Seller > Admin Users in the left resources menu to open the "Get a list of admin users" request. Click Send to see an empty list response:

{
  "Meta": {
    "Page": 1,
    "PageSize": 20,
    "TotalCount": 0,
    "TotalPages": 0,
    "ItemRange": [
      1,
      0
    ]
  },
  "Items": []
}

You are not interacting with the OrderCloud API as you would in a production implementation. To create actual users and define how they interact with your Marketplace, create core users and establish their access definitions.
