To use the FreeAgent connector, add the <freeagent.init>
element in your configuration before carrying out any other FreeAgent operations.
FreeAgent uses OAuth 2.0. OAuth 2.0 allows FreeAgent users to authorize third party apps to access their data without sharing their FreeAgent login details. Instead, an app will have one access token and one refresh token for each authorized FreeAgent user account. For more information on authentication, see https://dev.freeagent.com/docs/oauth.
