Prepare for authentication

You can configure basic, authorization code, and client credentials authentication types to access SAP Datasphere and SAP S/4HANA applications.
Before you configure the connection properties, you need to keep the authentication details handy based on the authentication type that you want to use.

Basic

Use basic authentication to connect to SAP S/4HANA applications. You need the SAP account user name and password to configure basic authentication.
Get the required details from the SAP S/4HANA application to which you want to connect.
For more information about basic authentication in SAP, see Basic authentication in the SAP documentation.

Authorization code

Use OAuth 2.0 authorization code authentication to connect to SAP Datasphere and SAP S/4HANA applications. You need the SAP client ID, client secret, authorization token URL, access token URL, and access token to configure OAuth 2.0 authorization code authentication.
To get the authorization details, you need to create an authorization integration in SAP, and register the following Informatica redirect URL in SAP Integration Suite:
https://<Informatica cloud hosting facility for your organization>/ma/proxy/oauthcallback
If the access token expires and the response returns a 401 error code, the Informatica redirect URL, which is outside the customer firewall, tries to connect to the endpoint and retrieves a new access token.
For more information about how to create an authorization integration and get the authorization details, see OAuth 2.0 authorization code in the SAP documentation.

Client credentials

Use OAuth 2.0 client credentials authentication to connect to SAP Datasphere and SAP S/4HANA applications. You need the SAP client ID, client secret, access token URL, scope, and access token to configure OAuth 2.0 client credentials authentication.
Configure the OAuth endpoint with the client credentials grant type and then create an authorization integration to get the authorization details.
For more information about how to create an authorization integration and get the authorization details, see OAuth 2.0 client credentials in the SAP documentation.
