How do I set up manual authorization?

The OAuth Token is an "open authorization" standard to grant Internet users access to their information on other websites without requiring a password. Examples of companies that use OAuth tokens include Google, Facebook, Microsoft, and Twitter. The OAuth Token grants a third party secure, delegated access to server resources on behalf of Caselle. When you issue an OAuth token to a third party, you grant the third party access to protected information hosted by the Caselle server.
