Setting up your account

Before doing this you need to Register your account (see Registering Greatascent).

Go to the Settings window by choosing the Greatascent Settings item from the Address Book menu.

First enter your account name. This is not your username but the subdomain part of the URL you use to access Highrise (ex. http://<account name>.highrisehq.com).

Then enter your user token. this is not your password but the token given to you by Highrise? You can find it on the 'My info' page in Highrise by clicking on the 'Reveal authentication token for feeds/API' link.
You also need to update this setting too when you regenerated the authentication token in Highrise.

Finally you must make sure that the SSL option is set correctly. The easiest way to do this is by logging in to your Highrise account. Then look at the URL if it starts with https:// and not http:// then you need the SSL option to be turned on.

Click the Done button to save your settings.
