Connectiong to REST API on production account

Please let me know how I can connect to the REST API from my Merchant account?

For this purpose, I created the "Semi-Integrated REST Clients" application on a separate Developer account.

How do I enable the merchant to generate oAuth keys using this app? Is it only visible on the developer's account and not on the Merchant's account. I can't find it in the store either because I checked the checkbox in the integration:

NO -> "Do you intend to make this app publicly available to merchants via the Clover App Market?"

Because this is our internal integration.

1. Do I have to publish this application in the store? so I can create an oAuth token for my own application?

2. Do I have to undergo a complete App review just to connect to the REST API? https://docs.clover.com/docs/developer-app-approval-archive

What APIs are you using? Do you actually have a semi-integration (e.g initiating payments on a clover device via rest pay API/rest pay display)? Or, are you just making API calls to get data. If you have a semi integration your app needs to be approved - https://docs.clover.com/docs/private-apps, otherwise you can probably just use a merchant token.

Yes, I want to use REST Pay Display. So I have to:

1. Complete the App Approval process.

2. Then I will be able to create a link for my Merchant leading directly to the application?

Yep, app needs to be approved then your merchant will be able to install it then you can get an auth token.
