Everything to set up before you write integration code. The pages explain how the platform fits together and how your systems authenticate against it. They also cover how your staff get into the Lobyco Admin Portal, and which external accounts your organisation must own. Most of it is done once, by your IT administrator or your integration team.
Authentication is the usual first blocker. If your organisation runs its own Azure AD tenant, start with the multi-tenant setup. Otherwise use the Lobyco tenant setup.

Understand the platform

Getting started with Lobyco

What the platform consists of, and the three points where a purchase meets it.

Azure costs

How the hosting bill splits between your environments and the shared components.

Connect to the APIs

API integration

The Azure Front Door address ranges your firewall must allow.

API authentication

OAuth 2.0 client credentials or an API key, and which tenant setup to choose.

Sign customers in

Mobile app authentication

Lobyco IDP on its own, or in front of your existing identity provider.

Set up Lobyco IDP for your websites

The same sign-in on your own websites, with the authorization code flow.

Set up accounts and access

Access to Lobyco Admin Portal

Connect your Azure AD, grant consent once and assign roles.

Admin portal roles

Every role and the portal section it opens.

Admin portal chain and store level access

Limit an admin user to the chains or stores they manage.

Set up Apple and Google developer accounts

The accounts your organisation owns, and the access that lets Lobyco publish the app.
