A system user for OAuth authentication must exist in SAP before configuring the OAuth client. For details, see [Create a system user for OAuth authentication in SAP](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/ca4Xf~gch9CCFdhVtKKlJA "Create a dedicated system user in SAP to serve as the OAuth 2.0 client ID for the Software Asset Management integration.").

SAP Role required: SAP Basis administrator

## About this task

Use transaction code SOAUTH2 to register the OAuth client and define the grant types, redirect URI, and scopes required for the integration.{#configure-oauth-client-sap__configure-oauth-client-sap-context-1}

## Procedure

2. In the Client ID field, select the system user created for OAuth authentication.
