Integrating with Dynamics 365 Online Web API Prompting For Credentials

Question

Our client has asked us to integrate with their CRM (Microsoft Dynamics 365) from their e-commerce website in order to update customer information after a purchase.

We have been given the following documentation URL for the integration:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/dynamicscrm-2016/developers-guide/gg327838%28v%3dcrm.8%29

We've managed to get this working to the point where the application loads up a prompt asking for our Dynamics 365 username and password.

This is obviously not what we want.

Ideally we would problematically enter the username and password to retrieve the bearer token which will allow us to make subsequent requests to the relevant endpoints to update order information.

We can't seem to find any coherent documentation that explains how to do this. This seems such a trivial task but apparently so difficult.

Has anyone had any experience implementing a similar solution? Or have any pointers of where we should look next?

Thanks in advance.
