I need to obtain an OAuth token when a user installs my app:


Apps Framework

How can I do this? are there any YouTube videos explaining it? Basically when someone installs my app how can I kick off the OAuth flow? Any github examples? i have found this User onboarding but not sure if its the right link to answer this question. it says:



Starting point




The starting point is the feature or template that opens when a user tries to set up your app for the first time.



Is this the page user sees when they open my app? that is not what i am looking for. what i am looking for is an endpoint i can provide when user installs my app. this is a one-time page they will see vs. a page that they see every time when they open my app. can someone guide me? thanks

Hi Morpheus,


I would manage this on your side, outside of the monday ecosystem, still using their auth.


In my app, SummarizeIt to Items, I do something similar based on the account “tier” and show and upgrade page.


The front-end page gets the monday.com user auth info, that contains enough data to pass to your back-end(account_id/user_id etc…) to check if the’ve alreayd viewed that page. If so return so and let the front-end show whats needed.


Thats at least how Id go about it first.


Hope that helps!
