Clay uses OAuth 2.0 for authorization, an open standard used by API providers. OAuth 2.0 is a specification that allows third-party services to make requests on behalf of a user without accessing passwords and other sensitive information. If you are unfamiliar with OAuth 2.0, you can learn more about it here; official OAuth spec.
You can set up OAuth in a few simple steps:
Register your app
Get the access token (client id & secret)
