+### Using 2-legged OAuth2 using Client Credentials

+The Client Credentials grant is used when applications request an access token to access their own resources, not on behalf of a user.

 ### Using Basic Authentication Instead
 Instead of messing around with OAuth, you may simply elect to use BasicAuth instead.
