Hi Peter and thanks for the advice. I have absolutely already implemented all of that! My aim was to simplify the process so that I don't need to ask anybody for their account login information to make a credential object for their account, but transfer authority from their account to a previously authorized account I own.
Does the API have some way of sending a request like this to the account owner? Thanks, Adam Is there any way that some kind of read-only access can be granted to a master account which I have pre-authorized?
