Create a Service Connection for Matrix42 PackageCloud
Overview
In order to use the PackageCloud integration it is required to setup a service account which uses a Matrix42 Account to provide the authentication to Matrix42. This allows the system to verify that the system belongs to a Matrix42 customer and the status of the PackageCloud subscriptions. Matrix42 customers without a valid PackageCloud subscription are able to see all packages and download/integrate all packages which are marked as "free". A wizard allows an easy setup in the Administration -> Service Connections -> Connections. See the documentation.
PackageCloud Integration
Once the new service connection is configured the PackageCloud integration will use the configured service connection to retrieve the data from the Matrix42 Marketplace. For testing purposes this can be enforced by navigating to Data Providers and activate the PackageCloud data provider.
