Configure a JAR file and credential identifiers so that the JAR file resolves the credential identifiers into actual credentials from the CyberArk external vault. The process enables the MID Server to get and include OAuth 2.0 credentials in the OAuth token request.

## Vorbereitungen

Role required: agent_admin or admin

The CyberArk external vault stores sensitive credentials and the ServiceNow instance stores credential identifiers that map to the specific credential names that the vault stores. The JAR file enables the mapping of a credential identifier to a specific
credential name in the external vault. The mapping enables the MID Server to acquire and include the required credential in the OAuth token request. You must configure the credential identifiers and the JAR file in the ServiceNow instance and the MID Server
respectively.

## Prozedur

1. [Import the CyberArk JAR file](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/jQWhoU3W9T1WpPuRiyHmgg "Import the CyberArk JavaPasswordSDK.jar file into the instance to make it accessible to the MID Server.").
2. [Configure a connection to send OAuth request via the MID Server using external vault](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/uCVXQyGwU_F8bvJHd8gIyQ "Configure a connection to send requests for OAuth 2.0 tokens to a third-party auth server via the MID Server. The MID Server adds OAuth 2.0 credentials (Client ID and Client Secret) from the CyberArk external vault, OAuth scope, and token URL from the instance to the request and sends them to the third-party auth server.").
