+## Getting started
+There are several things that need to be completed to properly setup and secure the API.
+1. Auth0 API configuration
+2. API filesystem paths
+3. Database connection string
+4. Migrations
+
+### Auth0 API configuration
+
+### API filesystem paths
+
+### Database connection string
+
+In order for Database functionality to be operable, there must be a valid connection string and credentials with appropriate permissions. At the moment there is only support for MySQL. Depending on your environment `Release` or `Debug` you will need to edit the appsettings.json or appsettings.Development.json accordingly. An example of the fields to change are below:
+```Json
+{
+
+  "ConnectionStrings": {
+	  "DefaultConnection": "Server=;Database=;Uid=;Pwd=;"
+  }
+ 
+}
+```
+* Server - The address or domain name of the MySQL server
+* Database - The database name
+* Uid - Username
+* Password - Self-explanatory
+
+The only requirement of the User is that the user should have full permissions to the database as well as permissions to create a database. Other than that, that is all that is required.
+
+### Migrations
