Hi There,

Yes it took me a while to work it out but I got there in the end, here is how I did it.

In NOP Admin under API create a new client, the client ID & Secret will be created for you.

Note the Callback URL which is pointing to www.getpostman.com/oauth2/callback

Then in PostMan, create a new GET, for example http://localhost:15536/api/customers/count

Click on the Authorization tab, set Type to OAuth2.0, click on "Get New Access Token"

Token Name can be whatever you want as it is only for display but enter your server details for NOP, you will have a different port number to me. Then click "Request Token".

All going well you should have an access_token come back to you, in which case you then click on Use Token, check that the Add Token to option is set to "Header"

Now Click on "Send" & you should have the JSON returned displaying the count of customers.

All the best
