Use OAuth 2.0 for all API authentication. The goLance API implements the Client Credentials grant type to issue access tokens for secure, token-based authentication. This allows applications to access goLance resources without exposing user credentials. To authenticate, you must first obtain a client ID and client secret, which can be created from your company page on goLance under OAuth Applications. If this functionality is not available, please contact goLance Support to request access. Once you have your credentials, send a POST request to the create access token endpoint using your client ID and secret. The API responds with a short-lived access token, which you include in the Authorization header of all subsequent requests:
No scopes are required at this time. If a request fails with 401 Unauthorized, or if POST /auth/token is rate limited, see Handling errors.
