When to Use a Custom OAuth App

Creating a custom OAuth app is optional as the driver is already registered with Snapchat Ads and you can connect with its embedded credentials.

You might want to create a custom OAuth app to change the information displayed when users log into Snapchat Ads to grant permissions to the driver.

Desktop Authentication with a Custom OAuth App

After Creating a Custom OAuth App, follow the steps below to authenticate with the credentials for a custom OAuth app.

Get and Refresh the OAuth Access Token

After setting the following, you are ready to connect:

• OAuthClientId: Set to the client Id assigned when you registered your app.
• OAuthClientSecret: Set to the client secret assigned when you registered your app.
• CallbackURL: Set to the redirect URI defined when you registered your app.

When you connect the driver opens the OAuth endpoint in your default browser. Log in and grant permissions to the application.
