Authorize

}
Authorize with Flinks to obtain an access_token used for subsequent FlinksPay API calls. Pass your onboarding Username / Password with URL-encoded grant_type=client_credentials. Tokens are time-limited (see expires_in in the response, default 299 seconds) and single-use — generate a new one for each session. If you believe credentials have been compromised, contact Flinks to rotate them.

One token per session

A token can only initiate a single session. Call /Authorize again before each subsequent session.
