In Coretex, each account is represented by a folder, which VF360 monitors. On the account side, you can define a generic software user (not a real user) for the purpose of connecting from VF360 straight to Coretex. This user must have a password in NewsWayX(NWX). For this user you need to generate an API token, which allows the users belonging to that specific account to connect to Coretex without having to introduce their own user credentials.

All changes done on NWX XML that is sent to ViewFlow360 is supported from version NWX-6.0.0.2.97975
Older versions of NWX version are supported; however not all new reports and new features functions as expected.

In Coretex, in Control Panel > Profiles > Users, select Generate Token. The token automatically appears in the API Token column.

To use this feature, you must first define the DNS of the cloud where Coretex runs, in VF360, > Accounts and Users > Accounts >   Edit Account > Contact Parameters > URL.
