Adding OAuth 2.0 application credentials

To enable R‑Cloud to use OAuth 2.0 to access the SaaS application data, the OAuth 2.0 application credentials must be available to R‑Cloud.

Depending on what kind of OAuth 2.0 application credentials you want to use, do one of the following:

I want to use...	Instructions
Global OAuth 2.0 application credentials	By default, R‑Cloud generates the global OAuth 2.0 application credentials for you and adds them to R‑Cloud. You cannot edit or delete these default OAuth 2.0 application credentials. You can skip the procedure that is described in this topic and continue with adding an R-Cloud module. For instructions on how to add an R-Cloud module to R‑Cloud, see Adding an R-Cloud module.
Custom OAuth 2.0 application credentials	You must first add the custom OAuth 2.0 application credentials to R‑Cloud, and then specify them when adding an R-Cloud module. For instructions on how to add an R-Cloud module to R‑Cloud, see Adding an R-Cloud module.
