jQuery authentication issue

I’ll try to make it as clean as I can, so maybe it will be helpful for someone in future. If there is already thread that could help me, please link it because can’t find it.

  1. I have registered new app at Asana profile and I get from there CLIENT ID & CLIENT SECRET

  2. I have registered/allowed new app at AUTHORIZATION ENDPOINT, but I have no idea where I should put this key in my app (is it username or password?)

  3. At my app based on ajax/jquery I use:

     $.ajax({
 	type : "PUT",
 	url : "https://app.asana.com/api/1.0/tasks/464883008651853",

 username: 'CLIENT ID',
 password: 'CLIENT SECRET',
 

 data: {"completed":true},
 		success    : function(){
 			console.log("test");
 		}
 	});

As an response I get 401 at dev console - authorization failed.

Could someone make it clear for me and maybe more people in future how to integrate && autehnticate APP corectly?

Not really, I wish some Asana DEV could help.
