GuidesMATTR VII

How to get started with the MATTR VII platform

Getting started with MATTR VII comprises the following steps:

  1. Sign up for a trial tenant.
  2. Obtain an access token.
  3. Make your first request.
  4. Download and use the GO Hold example app

Sign up for a trial tenant

Complete the sign up form for a free trial tenant.

💡
If you already have an existing tenant, this step is not required.

Obtain an access token

Once you complete the free trial onboarding process, you can make a request to obtain an access token for your tenant.

💡

You will need your tenant details to obtain an access token. If you had not received these details or have any questions, please contact us.

Make your first request

Once you have obtained an access token, you can use it to make a request to any protected endpoint. We recommend starting with something basic like retrieving a list of all DIDs available on your tenant:

Request

Make the following request with the obtained access token as a request header:

HTTP
GET http://{tenant_url}/v1/dids
  • tenant_url: Replace with your own tenant_url provided with your tenant details.

Response

Success is indicated by a returned 200 HTTP status code. As you’ve likely not yet created any DIDs, we would expect an empty array as a response:

JSON
[]

The fact that a 200 HTTP status code was returned indicates that your bearer token has permitted access to the protected resource.

💡

You will use a similar approach to make a request to any protected endpoint. Note that you will need to obtain a new access token whenever it expires. We recommend using our Postman collection to interact with your MATTR VII tenant. This collection includes a pre-request script to obtain an access token when it is missing or expired.

Download and use the GO Hold example app

The MATTR GO Hold example app is built using the MATTR Pi Holder SDK and will enable you to trial end-to-end journeys you might create on your MATTR VII tenant.
