### Via Command Line
#### Prerequisite
Install BaseSpace CLI (Command Line Interface)
```
# Linux
$ wget "https://launch.basespace.illumina.com/CLI/latest/amd64-linux/bs" -O $HOME/bin/bs
# Mac
$ wget "https://launch.basespace.illumina.com/CLI/latest/amd64-osx/bs" -O $HOME/bin/bs
# or
$ brew tap basespace/basespace && brew install bs-cli
# Windows
$ wget "https://launch.basespace.illumina.com/CLI/latest/amd64-windows/bs.exe" -O bs.exe
```
Follow the instructions on the [BaseSpace CLI Installation Page](https://developer.basespace.illumina.com/docs/content/documentation/cli/cli-overview) if needed. Be aware of the Basespace Regional Instance you are working on (us, euc1, aps2, euw2)
#### Authenticate
On BSSH, login to the workgroup you want to connect as the storage.
Example - connect integration1 workgroup as storage.
Once the BaseSpace CLI is installed, run the authentication command in the terminal.
```
$ bs auth
```
The command will direct you to a link which requires to login.
After the authentication was completed successfully, find the access token in the config file.
```
$ cat .basespace/default.cfg
```
The result should look like -
```
apiServer = https://api.basespace.illumina.com
accessToken =
```
Populate the App\_token with the accessToken value, and Server with the apiServer URL from the BSSH config file.
Client\_key will be displayed in subsequent menus, so a descriptive name such as the workgroup name can be used.
Client\_secret is unused when the App\_token is available and can be set to "x".
