+### Choose OAuth token grant type
+
+For service-to-service communication use 'client_credentials' grant type and API application key, secret combination to obtain an OAuth token. (Default grant type: password)
+
+```ts
+import { TrustpilotApi } from "trustpilot";
+
+async run() {
+  const client = await new TrustpilotApi({
+      key: 'YOUR-API-KEY',
+      secret: 'YOUR-SECRET',
+      granttype: 'client_credentials'
+    }).authenticate();
+
+  // Use client
+}
+```
