2. Create an OAuth application

Create your OAuth application here while you are logged into Universe. Name your application and add the callback/redirect URI you’ll be using.

Once you save your app, the following will be generated for you:

  1. Your Application ID (also known as a Client ID)
  2. Your Client Secret

📘

Do I need my app approved?

Please note your app does not need to be approved to continue.

With non-approved apps, your access token is valid for 30 days, and after the 30 days, the user would need to go through the OAuth grant flow again to re-authenticate in order to get a new access token.

With approved apps, you will get a refresh token to request a new access token that is valid for another 30 days.

If your application needs an indefinite refresh_token, please contact us.
