Step 3: Create Resources

SpamExperts no longer supports CloudBlue integration. This will be deprecated shortly.

Before beginning with the below steps, please ensure you have completed Step 2: Add a CloudBlue instance.

Requirements

The application requires at minimum each of the following resources for the newly created CloudBlue application instance.

Key

The following icons indicate availability:

Key Status Description
Available Is available for all
Available if additional criteria met Is available for all, so long as an additional criteria is met (see * for additional information)
Not Available Is not available
# Name Service Name Default Limit Auto-provisioned
1 Application Service Reference N/A 1 N/A
2 Application Service Context 1
3 Application Service Domain Unlimited
4 Application Service Email Unlimited

The Context resource will be the only automatically provisioned resource.

Application counters are optional, but you may find these useful. They allow more control over the application, users and resource administration/billing.

Create the Resources

  1. In the CloudBlue Commerce interface, navigate to Services > Applications

  2. Select the Resource Types tab and click Create:

  3. Select the resource to create. These resources must be created in the below order:

    4. We highly recommend using SE as a prefix before the name when creating these resources. This makes it easier to find the resources later.

  1. Give the resource a name that will be recognizable to you in the future. To make the resource easier to find when creating the Service Template we recommend using something like SE Application Service Reference. Click Next

  2. Select the APS Type SpamExperts

  3. Then select the Application Instance created earlier

  4. Click Finish once you see the green banner at the top advising the resource type is ready to be created.

You will need to complete these steps three times; once for Context, once for Domain, and once for Email.

  1. Give the resource a name that will be recognizable to you in the future. We recommend SE Context, SE Domain and SE Email, and click Next

  2. Select a resource handler for the service you chose:
    • SE Context:

    • SE Domain:

    • SE Email:

  3. Click Next
  4. Set the Additional Parameters as follows:
    • SE Context: priority =10, Automatically provision service = ON
    • SE Domain: priority =20, Automatically provision service = ON
    • SE Email: priority =30, Automatically provision service = ON

  5. Click Finish once you see the green banner at the top advising the resource type is ready to be created

  1. Enter a name for the counter and click Next e.g. SE Incoming

  2. Select the correct counter from the resource counter list

  3. Click Finish once you see the green banner at the top advising the resource type is ready to be created.

See Application Counter Types for details on resource types.

After completing the above steps, move on to Step 4: Add a service template.
