3. Creating/Adding New Clients

Select the Add new client link at the bottom left corner of the window to open a new window.

  • Mobile App
  • Machine-to-Machine (M2M)

Select the type that best fits your needs.

Next, fill in the details about your client. Depending on the type of application you've chosen, some fields may vary or become optional/mandatory.
