How Maesn works with FreeAgent

How do I get started with Maesn?
You can allow your customers to link your application with their FreeAgent accounts by following the steps below:
-
Sign up for a FreeAgent account if you don’t already have one.
Please note that you’ll not need to use this FreeAgent account for anything other than managing the FreeAgent App and, if you want to, becoming a FreeAgent partner later.
-
Navigate to the FreeAgent developer portal and select ‘Create New App’.
In this step, we create the App that a user can choose to install into their FreeAgent instance to authorise the integration with your application.
-
Enter the following details:
Name - This should be your application’s name. When your users link their FreeAgent account, they will see that ‘Name’ is requesting to integrate with their FreeAgent account.
Description - A description for your app.
App Homepage URL - The homepage of your company’s website, e.g. https://yourcompany.com/.
Redirect URL: - Should be set to https://api.maesn.dev/auth/callback/freeagent.
- Once you are done with the setup, you’ll see both the OAuth identifier and the OAuth secret. You will need both of these to connect to the FreeAgent API.
- Configure your integration in the Maesn API by getting in touch with your contact person at Maesn to submit the client ID and client secret. If you’re not sure who your technical contact is, please contact support@maesn.com.
