# Create a Box Application

To index content from Box, you must create a Box application to represent the connector.

NOTE:

This procedure is subject to change. For information about creating a Box application, refer to the Box developer documentation.

To create a Box application

1. Create a Box user account.
2. Go to http://developers.box.com/.
3. Click Create A Box Application.
4. Give the application a name and click Create Application.
5. In the OAuth2 parameters area, find and make a note of the `client_id` and `client_secret`. You will need these values to configure authentication.
6. To use the OAuth configuration tool to configure OAuth authentication, ensure that the `redirect_uri` for the application matches the URL where you will run the OAuth configuration tool. By default this is `http://localhost:7878/oauth`.
