Configuration

This part of the documentation covers the configuration of Patent2Net. The second step to using any software package is getting it properly configured. Please read this section carefully.

After successfully configuring the software, you might want to follow up reading about its Usage.

OPS credentials

Patent2Net needs your personal credentials for accessing the OPS API. You have to provide them once as they are stored into the file cles-epo.txt in the current working directory.

There is a convenience command for initializing Patent2Net with your OPS credentials:

p2n ops init --key=ScirfedyifJiashwOckNoupNecpainLo --secret=degTefyekDevgew1

Note

The Patent2Net scripts expect to find the file cles-epo.txt in the projects’ root folder.

OPS registration

Please follow the Register P2N with OPS documentation to install your OPS OAuth credentials in the “cles-epo.txt” file in the root directory.
