# Accessing data exposed by the platform

You can access the data exposed by the platform through the IndustryApps **AAS Gateway**, which has REST endpoints provided by the IndustryApps Platform.  You will get an `AppID` and `AppSecretCode` when you register your application to IndustryApps in the Solution Provider portal. These credentials can be used to create an `AccessToken` . This AccessToken needs to be sent with every request of API. Along with this, you need to provide the`UserToken`which you will get from the below integration.
