Create an Access Token

/oauth/access_token

Client Credentials​

A client_credentials token is used when the credentials are not publicly exposed, usually a server-side language such as PHP or Node.js. This type of authentication enables CRUD access to all resources.

client_id and client_secret are created and managed via Application Keys.

To see the access granted by a client_credentials token, refer to Permissions.

Implicit​

An implicit token is typically used for situations where you are requesting data on the client side and you are exposing your public key. When authenticated implicitly, you can only fetch (GET) data with live status (products, categories, brands, etc).

The implicit token is most appropriate for use inside client-side applications, such as JavaScript.

caution

An implicit token can be thought of as a Read only token.
