If you’ve already installed Azion Orchestrator Agent on your device, the next step is to authorize the edge node on the platform. You can do so using:

Go to install Orchestrator agent

Access Azion Console.
On the upper-left corner of the page, open the Products menu, represented by three horizontal lines, and then select Edge Nodes.
Find the edge node you wish to authorize, which will have the status Waiting Authorization.
Click on the three dots button and then click Authorize.
Confirm the authorization.

Run the following GET request in your terminal, replacing [TOKEN VALUE] with your personal token and retrieve the edge node ID you wish to authorize:

curl --location 'https://api.azionapi.net/edge_nodes/' \

--header 'Accept: application/json; version=3' \

--header 'Authorization: Token [TOKEN VALUE]'

Run the following PATCH request in your terminal, replacing [TOKEN VALUE] with your personal token and informing the edge node ID:

curl --location --request PATCH 'https://api.azionapi.net/edge_nodes/authorize' \

--header 'Accept: application/json; version=3' \

--header 'Authorization: Token [TOKEN VALUE]' \

--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \

--header 'accept: application/json; version=3' \

--data {

"edge_node_ids": [

0

]

}

Now, your edge node is authorized and able to work with edge services.
