This quickstart sample creates a Square client instance with your Square access token and then lists the locations in your account. The sample is based on the Java SDK Quickstart guide.

Install Java Guide - If you don't have java already installed on your machine.

Maven Install Guide note: Gradle is also supported but the quickstart here demonstrates using Maven.

1. Change into the quickstart directory

2. Copy the example config file in src/main/resources, and place your Square Access Token inside of the new file.

   $ cp src/main/resources/config.properties.example src/main/resources/config.properties
   

3. Replace PLACE_VERSION_HERE with the latest SDK version from here

4. Compile the program

   $ mvn package -DskipTests
   

5. Execute the code

   $ mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.square.examples.Quickstart"
   

6. In your console, you should see output similar to this:

   Location(s) for this account:
   LGJ1WWJ8PSV8Z: Default Test Account, 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington
