Setting Up OAuth Authentication in SAP Cloud Integration

OAuth Client Credentials Grant authentication in SAP Cloud Integration is a security mechanism that allows external sender systems to call integration flows using token-based authentication rather than basic credentials. A developer sets this up by configuring an inbound OAuth client with an SAP-generated certificate, enabling secure, certificate-backed token issuance for systems that invoke integration flow endpoints. This approach is used when building integrations that require standardized, delegated authorization between a calling application and SAP Cloud Integration.
