Create customer tenant

Create a customer tenant.

Prerequisites

  • Credentials as described in Authentication

  • A customer tenant type

  • An invoice profile identifier

C#

To create customer tenant, first instantiate CustomerTenantDetailed and set Tenant property with the instantiated CustomerTenant along with its properties Consumer, InvoiceProfile and CustomerTenantType set with consumer id, invoice profile id and tenant type respectively.

Next, get the instance of CrayonApiClient and then get the client token using the instance. This client token will be passed when creating the customer tenant.

Finally, call CustomerTenants.Create() method to create new customer tenant by passing the token and the instance of CustomerTenantDetailed.

var customerTenantDetailed = new CustomerTenantDetailed
{
        Tenant = new CustomerTenant
        {
                CustomerTenantType = 2,
                DomainPrefix = "mycustomer",
                InvoiceProfile = new ObjectReference { Id = <invoice profile id> },
                Name = "My customer AB",
                Organization = new Organization { Id = <organization id> },
                Publisher = new ObjectReference { Id = <publisher id> }
        },
        Profile = new CustomerTenantProfile
        {
                Address = new CustomerTenantAddress
                {
                        FirstName = "firstname",
                        LastName = "lastname",
                        AddressLine1 = "addressline 1",
                        City = "city",
                        Region = "state",
                        CountryCode = "SE",
                        PostalCode = "181 61"
                },
                Contact = new CustomerTenantContact
                {
                        FirstName  = "firstname",
                        LastName = "lastname",
                        Email = "firstname.lastname@email.com",
                        PhoneNumber = "000-12345689"
                }
        },
        Company = new CustomerTenantCompany
        {
                OrganizationRegistrationNumber = "12345678"
        }
};

var client = new CrayonApiClient("https://api.crayon.com/");
var token = client.Tokens.GetUserToken(clientId, clientSecret, userName, password).GetData().AccessToken;
var result = client.CustomerTenants.Create(token, customerTenantDetailed);

Error Codes

Description

200 Ok

The request has succeeded.

400 Bad Request

The request could not be understood by the server due to malformed syntax, missing required properties, properties that couldn’t be parsed according to their type (and length). It is a non-retryable error condition. The client should not repeat the request without modifications.

401 Unauthorized

The request requires user authentication. If the request already included Authorization credentials, then the 401 (Unauthorized) status code means that authorization has been refused for those credentials. It is a non-retryable error condition.

502 Bad Gateway

The server acting as a gateway or proxy received an incorrect response from the upstream server it accessed in attempting to fulfill the request. This is a non-retryable error condition.
