This will be modified, don't worry

1. Register

Simply make standard account on disk.yandex.com

2. Register App Client

First thing to do is to register new App Client. This can be done in oauth.yandex.com.

• Click on "Create new client" button
• Enter "App Name"
• Apply permissions you want for "Yandex.Disk REST API" (if you dont know which permissions you want, select all of them)
• Click "Create App" button

3. Get OAuth token for App Client

Now you need to get OAuth token for your client. This can be done by going to https://oauth.yandex.com/authorize?response_type=token&client_id=(Here your ID from registering app website). You should enter this site by browser, not curl!

4. Test request your files (List files)

With every request, you have to add your oauth token via Authorization header. Here's example for file list request:

curl --header "Authorization: OAuth (Here_Your_Token)" https://cloud-api.yandex.net/v1/disk/resources/files
