### Create Application

[](#create-application)

- Give it a reference name; so user will be able to know what it is related to later.
- Fill in the endpoint permissions, enabling `access` next to the required groups and members endpoints as shown: [![Endpoint permissions](docs/img/ipb-api-endpoint-permissions.png)](docs/img/ipb-api-endpoint-permissions.png)
- Once done, click on the `Save` at the bottom of the form.

### Install Package

[](#install-package)

Since SeAT 3.0 - it's become super easy to install package. Just require `anza-eve/seat-ipb-connector`, publish vendor and run migrations scripts :)

- Firstly, run the following command `composer require anza-eve/seat-ipb-connector`.
- Then, publish vendors `php artisan vendor:publish --force` (this will show you a prompt - input the number related to the following line `Anza\Seat\Connector\Ipb\IpbConnectorServiceProvider`).
- Finally, run migrations scripts with `php artisan migrate`

Don't forget to restart `supervisor` with `service supervisor restart`.

> **IMPORTANT**
>
> All upper command have to be run using the SeAT instance user `www-data`, `seat` or whatever you've done with your installation. They need to be run at root SeAT directory which used to be `/var/www/seat`

### Setup Package

[](#setup-package)

Authenticate yourself using admin user on your SeAT instance. If all upper statements have been executed properly, you'll seed a new section into the sidebar called `Connector`.

Open it, then go into `Settings` and fill the form using collected information at the beginning of this Walkthrough. Confirm using the `Update` button.

Next, you can select `Forums` and hit the `Update Sets` green button which will seed SeAT with Groups available on your forum.

### Setup Access

[](#setup-access)

To build the mapping between SeAT and IPB, go into `Connector > Access Management`. In case you're seeing no groups in the form, go into `Connector > Settings` and hit the `Update Sets` button.

In **Forums**, there are 6 kind of mapping called `Filter`. Their scope are explained in the table bellow.

Then, hit the `Add` button. At all time, you're able to check which filter are set in the table available on the right side. You can also drop mapping using the red `Remove` button near each mapping line.
