Active Collab API

Note: I have tested this API against the Cloud-Hosted version of Active-Collab, not with the self-hosted installation!

Workflow

1. Login with username and password to Authentication Server and get back the intent for the user
2. Request a token for some Account (user could have multiple accounts) using the Account url and the users intent
3. Use the token to authenticate for every other API-Call
