Conga’s REST API authentication requires a bearer token. An account administrator can generate tokens for inclusion in authentication requests. Requests can then be included in scripts, configuration files, applications, processes, and so on.
Prerequisite
- A client ID and client secret have been generated for the API connection. For more information on how to generate ID–secret pairs, see Conga API to API Connection
