Overview

If you haven't already created your own instance of the web application, click on the deploy to bluemix button, and follow the instructions.

  • Note that this step may take quite a long time (maybe 30 minutes).
  • Make a note of the Organisation and Space names where you are deploying to.
  • An instance of Cloudant, Compose Redis and the Movie Recommendation web application will be set up automatically for you.

  • Login to the Bluemix console
  • Select the Organisation and Space that you deployed to.
  • Find the Cloudant service instance called my_cloudant, and select it.
  • Select the Service Credentials tab on the page that is displayed when the service is created.
  • Select the action View Credentials from the Service Credentials table.
  • Update the cell with your Cloudant details
  • Remove the # character and then run the cell to save your credentials to a file on DSX
