Eliq Data Management AP: Authentication
Eliq Data Management API uses client credentials as Authentication grant type, following Oauth2.0 standards (https://oauth.net/2/grant-types/client-credentials). Client id and client secret are generated at request by Eliq. The access token obtained from the auth request should later be passed as a Bearer to our API’s.
The client credentials, or access token generated using client credentials, must never be stored insecurely or transmitted to a client app (e.g. mobile or web).
