Prerequisites

Fetching the service ID and API key

Navigate to the Service ID that you created for GitHub integration in your Kyndryl Modern Operations Applications tenant. It can be located on the
IAM:Identity and Access Management
page. To learn more about navigating to the different services from each tenant, refer to Landing page navigation or Kyndryl Bridge Landing page navigation.
Copy the Service ID from the URL of the Kyndryl Modern Operations Applications tenant. The ID is the alphanumeric string immediately after
/service-ids/
and before
/view/
.
The service ID needs to have an access policy that at least provides the Platform Operator role. For more information, see IAM overview.
To generate the API Key, click
Manage
→
Add API Key
.
Record the generated API Key and store it in a secure location. It will not be displayed again.

Installing the Generic Proxy Adapter

Navigate to the Developer Console. To learn more about navigating to the different services from each tenant, refer to Landing page navigation or Kyndryl Bridge Landing page navigation.
In the
Application
field, select
EMP
.
In the
Service
field, select
consume_common_api
.
Scroll down to the
Proxy Installer
section.
Run the
POST /common/v1/proxy/installer
API with the following parameters to download the compressed file:
Accept:
"application/zip"
Parameter content type:
"application/json"
Payload:
{}
In the
Responses
section, click
Download file
.
Save the compressed file in a convenient location on the computer or virtual machine where the proxy container will be run and extract it.
Open the
configs.env
file and change the following parameters to match your tenant:
export IAM_SERVICE_ID=<IAM service ID>
export IAM_SERVICE_API_KEY= <IAM service API key>
Copy the PROXY_ID from the
configs.env
file.

Running the proxy container

Run the
docker login
command and enter the appropriate user name and password to log in to Docker Hub.
Logging in ahead of time reduces the chance of rate limit issues.
Run the
installer.sh
file to create a secure network extension (proxy) Docker image:
./installer.sh
.
Run the
run_container.sh
file to create the secure network extension (proxy) container:
./run_container
.
Run the
check_logs.sh
file to check the logs of secure network extension container to ensure that the container is deployed and is communicating with Enterprise Marketplace:
./check_logs.sh
.
The container is running and should be connected to EMP
wsmesh
.

 {
existing_proxyId = "{existing proxy ID}"
}

Navigate to
the IAM: Identify and Access Management
page. To learn more about navigating to the different services from each tenant, refer to Landing page navigation or Kyndryl Bridge Landing page navigation.

Creating an adapter registration for GitHub provider

Navigate to the Developer Console. To learn more about navigating to the different services from each tenant, refer to Landing page navigation or Kyndryl Bridge Landing page navigation.
Enter these parameters:
Application:
EMP
Service:
consume_common_api
Scroll down to the
Client Management API
section.
Run the POST /emp/common/clients API to create a new subscriber with the following payload:

{
    "name":"order_fulfillment_github",
    "provider_code":"github",
    "applicable_for":[
        {
            "id":"integration",
            "values":[
                "OrderFulfillment"
            ],
            "workflowId":"",
            "eventType":""
        }
    ],
    "callback":{
        "url":"github.kyndryl.net/api/v3/repos/MCMP-Marketplace/gcs-content-template",
        "certs":{
            "endpoint_ca_cer":"",
            "endpoint_cer":"",
            "endpoint_key":""
        },
        "headers":{
            
        },
        "connection_protocol":"https"
    }
 

provider_code:

github.

Enabling MTLS

Edit the Dockerfile and uncomment these lines that refer to the volume mount to the docker container:

#ENV VOLUME_PATH /certs
#VOLUME ${VOLUME_PATH}

Open the

configs.env

file and update the

export CERTS_FOLDER="”

variable with the values of the folder path containing the certificates and names of the files containing the certificates, for example

export CERTS_FOLDER=”/tmp/certs”

. The folder path of your host machine where the certificates are stored will be mounted as a volume to the proxy adapter container.

Add the file names of the client key, client cert and ca cert in the following variables. The Proxy container will create the socket connection with the certificates provided.

        export CA_CERT_FILE_NAME="" 
        export CLIENT_KEY_FILE_NAME="" 
        export CLIENT_CERT_FILE_NAME=""
