Download Tool Configuration for Connecting to Yammer API

Does anyone have a working workflow that connects to the Yammer API to pull data?  I've registered my app with Yammer and I have my client id and secret but I cant figure out the next step is to getting the token.  Should I be going the server-side or client-side route?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey, @fimler.

 

Is there a reference you're using, such as how someone would connect to the Yammer API with a programming language (e.g., Python)?

 

If it's a GET request to an API with some credentials, I believe the Download tool should work.

 

If it's more complicated and the Download tool is difficult to implement, there's always the Python tool. It isn't ideal, but it can definitely handle complex & complicated APIs.
