is very helpful
Consumer Key (Client ID) – API key associated with YOUR application.
Consumer Secret (Client Secret) – “Password” to be sent with your key to the server (whichever API we are getting data from) to make sure you own the application you say you do
Access Token / Secret – Issued to US by the server. Gives us privileges of what we can do, see, etc, provided when making API endpoint requests.
To get token sometimes use a redirect URI? – you put in client ID and stuff in and url and it spits out a new page url with your token… is it just an arbitrary website?
