In Insomnia, you can set the authorization method and details per request. To authenticate your service, perform the following setup:

1. Choose the **OAuth2** authorization type.

2. Select the **Client Credentials** grant type.

3. Use the following access token URL: <https://connect.visma.com/connect/token>.

4. Fill in the client ID and the client secret.

5. Enter the scope `business-graphql-service-api:access-group-based`.

6. Select **As Basic Auth Header** option for *Credentials* combo.

These settings are shown in the following image:
