# Configuring Marketo for Blinq

> Create the API-only user and LaunchPoint service that Blinq uses to connect to Marketo.

<Info>
  Complete these steps before you [connect Marketo in your Blinq dashboard](/integrations/marketo/connecting-marketo). You'll finish with three values to paste into Blinq: a **Client ID**, a **Client Secret**, and an **Identity URL**.
</Info>

Marketo doesn't offer a sign-in-and-authorize flow. Instead, a Marketo admin creates a set of API credentials in Marketo and enters them into Blinq once.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create a role with API access">
    * In Marketo, go to **Admin → Users & Roles**.
    * Open the **Roles** tab and create a role with API access permissions.
    * If you already have a role set up for API access, you can reuse it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create an API-only user">
    * Open the **Users** tab.
    * Create a new API-only user and assign it the role from the previous step.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create a LaunchPoint service">
    * Go to **Admin → Integration → LaunchPoint**.
    * Select **New → New Service**.
    * Set the service type to **Custom** and give it a name, for example `Blinq`.
    * Attach the API-only user you created.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Copy the Client ID and Client Secret">
    Select your new service and click **View Details** to reveal the **Client ID** and **Client Secret**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Copy the Identity URL">
    Go to **Admin → Integration → Web Services** and copy the **Identity URL** shown under the REST API section.
  </Step>

  <Check>
    **You now have the three credentials Blinq needs.** Next, [enter them in your Blinq dashboard](/integrations/marketo/connecting-marketo).
  </Check>
</Steps>
