1. In the developers program Home select the Application access keys option from the dropdown list of the "Hi YourAccountName" menu bar button.
2. On the Application Keys page you will be able to create an OAuth App and request a pair of OAuth credentials for either your Production environment or for your Sandbox one.
3. After generating and saving your App ID (Client ID) and your Cert ID (Client Secret), you can then click on the User Tokens button next to your App ID (Client ID) of the keyset you want to use.

After following these steps, save the OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret and RuName along with the configured CallbackURL (auth accepted URL) and follow the instructions on either Custom Credentials or Headless Machines to connect to .
