To create an application to obtain the OAuth client credentials, the OAuthClientId and OAuthClientSecret, follow these steps:

To do so, go to BlackBaud Sign Up.

2. Get a subscription key

1. Request a subscription to an API from the BlackBaud Products page and select SKY API Standard Edition.
2. Select Subscribe. A confirmation screen appears.
3. To submit your request, select Confirm. You will get an email notification when your request is approved.
4. After it is approved, you can view the subscription key within your developer profile.

3. Register your app

1. From My Applications (see https://developer.blackbaud.com/apps), select Register app.
2. Enter your application details.
3. Set redirect URI:
   • For Desktop applications, http://localhost:33333 or another port of your choice.
