Setting up Access Credentials for External Systems

API Client accounts are used by external systems to access data within Tenjin. The permissions a client has is controlled by the Role an account is given. Unlike normal user accounts, API Clients have a Client ID and a Client Secret, which must be copied when the account is created because they will not be made available to view again.
