Hi Tony,

Thanks for your message on our forum. We have a handy guide [here](https://dev.freeagent.com/docs/oauth) that describes how to get started with our API in more detail than we could possibly cover in a forum post.  
It should give you a good idea of what’s required to interact with a FreeAgent account via our API, however if you find anything unclear, please feel free to ask and I’ll do my best to clarify it for you 🙂

Best wishes,

Ewa
