Configure Aras

Violet connects to Aras using an OAuth 2.0 flow, which requires that you add redirect URLs to your Aras configuration in order to allow access. Instructions are below:

  1. Follow the instructions here to locate your Aras OAuth.config file. Open the file in your text editor or IDE of choice.

  2. Scroll down until you find the section for <redirecturis>. Add a new line and paste the redirect URL below:

    1. If you are using Violet: <redirectUri value='https://app.violetlabs.com/oauth/redirect/' /> OR

    2. If you are using VioletGov: <redirectUri value='https://app.violetgov.com/oauth/redirect/' />

  3. Open up IIS and click Reset.

Now you're ready to connect Aras in Violet.
