GroupMe user authentication in our mobile app.

[Sheryl]

We're looking to integrate GroupMe in our mobile app (both iOS and android native) through your REST API. Is there a way to authenticate the user's groupme credentials (username/password) and send us back the access token of that user?

[John Lotito]

Third parties can not authenticate directly with username and password. You must use oauth. 

This should help: https://dev.groupme.com/tutorials/oauth
