Personal access token bearer Get token ↗

Sign in to Gitter Developer Apps. The welcome docs say signing in creates a developer token you can use to test the API; the security notice says if you need a new personal access token, visit Developer Apps. Use the resulting token as an Authorization: Bearer token for API calls.

OAuth 2.0 app (client ID + client secret) oauth2 Set up OAuth ↗

Register your application at Gitter Developer Apps. Gitter assigns a Client ID and Client Secret. Send users to https://gitter.im/login/oauth/authorize, then exchange the returned code at https://gitter.im/login/oauth/token to obtain a bearer access token for the API, as documented in Authentication.
