Quick Start

In this section we will quickly go over a few ways to get you up and running for your project to leverage PaaS. We will provide some links to resources regarding GraphQL clients that you can use depending on your project.

Authentication

You are free to query data from profile as a service without authentication. If you would like access for your users to modify their data in PaaS you will need to authenticate your users through GCaccount. To create a GCaccount client for your app, please contact the GCTools helpdesk.

API Endpoint

The endpoint can be accessed via paas.gccollab.ca

paas.gccollab.ca
