Steps
Redirect users to id.jobadder.com/connect/authorize with response_type=code, your client_id, scope (e.g. read write offline_access), and redirect_uri.
Exchange the returned authorization code at POST id.jobadder.com/connect/token (grant_type=authorization_code) — the code expires in 5 minutes and is single-use.
Store the returned access_token (60-minute expiry) and, if offline_access was requested, the refresh_token (expires after 2 weeks unused).
Refresh via the same token endpoint with grant_type=refresh_token before the access_token expires.
Use the api, instance, and account fields returned with the token to route subsequent entity calls to the correct JobAdder org.
Scope requests down from the broad read/write grants to only what your integration needs, per JobAdder's own security guidance.
Known gotchas
The authorization code is single-use and expires in 5 minutes — a slow redirect handler will cause failures.
If the user who granted access is later deleted, refresh calls return invalid_grant/invalid_request errors that must be handled explicitly.
Unused refresh tokens expire after 2 weeks — an integration that goes quiet that long must re-run the full authorization flow.
