 This client leverages API-specific SDKs to provide a comprehensive and consistent interface for interacting with various APIs, including Microsoft Graph, Jamf Pro, and others. It is designed to be easily extensible to support additional APIs and to be highly configurable to meet specific API requirements. It achieves this through using a modular design, with a core HTTP client and API-specific handlers that encapsulate the unique requirements of each API supported.
 
+This HTTP client is intended to be used with targetted SDK's and terraform providers only. As such the http client cannot be used without a supporting SDK.

 ## Features
 
 - **Comprehensive Authentication Support**: Robust support for various authentication schemes, including OAuth and Bearer Token, with built-in token management and validation.

 ## Getting Started
 
+## HTTP Client Build Flow
+
+The HTTP client build flow can be initiated using a number of methods. The primary methods include:
+
+Using the SDK `BuildClientWithConfigFile` function, which reads the configuration from a JSON file and constructs the client accordingly. The configuration file specifies the authentication details, API environment settings, and client options, such as logging level, retry attempts, and concurrency limits.
+
+Or using the SDK `BuildClientWithEnvironmentVariables` function, which reads the configuration from environment variables and constructs the client accordingly. This method allows for more flexible configuration management, particularly in containerized environments or when using orchestration tools.
+
+There is also the option to the build the client manually by creating a new `Client` struct and setting the required fields directly. This method provides the most granular control over the client configuration and can be useful for advanced use cases or when integrating with existing configuration management systems. This is the approached used in related terraform providers.
