# SharePoint credentials

The **SharePoint connector** requires specific credentials, which are entered in **Setup** → **Credentials**. 

Click the **New** button and fill in these fields:

1. **Name** and **Description**: assign a name and a description to the SharePoint credential you are adding. If needed, the name and description can be edited at a later stage.
2. **Credential Type**: select **Oauth2 Client Credential** and these fields will appear:
   1. **Client Id** \* and **Client secret** \*: they must be provided by the service provider. 
   2. **Token Endpoint** \*: it must be provided by the service provider. 
   3. **Scope** (not mandatory): it must be provided by the service provider.
3. Click the **Save** button to confirm.

This credential will be used to connect to the server with a SharePoint client connection. See the [Client Connection: SharePoint](/data-mover-1.21/transfer-protocols-and-connectors/client-connections/client-connection-sharepoint.md) page for details. 

On the **Setup** → **Credentials** page, existing credentials can be sorted in the **Filters** panel on the right of the page. Insert the Credential Name and/or select the Credential Type and click on the **APPLY** button to filter results.
