How do I connect my Clio account?

After subscribing, the setup wizard will guide you through 3 simple steps: 1) Select your data region (US, Canada, EU, or Australia). 2) Enter the Client ID and Client Secret from your Clio Developer Application. 3) Click the **Connect with Clio** button — a popup will open where you approve access. That's it! No manual token exchange or curl commands required.

Where do I find the Redirect URI for my Clio Developer Application?

When creating your Developer Application in Clio, set the **Redirect URI** to: `https://api.vinkius.com/marketplace/oauth/callback`. This is the platform's secure callback endpoint that completes the OAuth authorization automatically.

How do I get my Client ID and Client Secret?

Sign in to Clio and go to **Settings → Developer Applications** (direct link: `https://app.clio.com/settings/developer_applications`). Click **New Application**, give it a name, and set the **Redirect URI** to `https://api.vinkius.com/marketplace/oauth/callback`. Save the app and copy the **Client ID** and **Client Secret** (the secret is shown only once — copy it immediately).

Can I create new legal cases via AI?

Yes! The `create_matter` tool allows the agent to register new legal cases by providing a display number, description, and client ID.

Do I need to refresh my tokens manually?

No. The platform automatically refreshes your access token in the background. You only need to click **Connect with Clio** once during setup, and the integration will keep working indefinitely.

Which Clio regions are supported?

All four Clio regions are supported: United States (app.clio.com), Canada (ca.app.clio.com), Europe/UK (eu.app.clio.com), and Australia (au.app.clio.com). Select your region in the first step of the setup wizard.
