# Configure OAuth Authentication

You must configure OAuth authentication so that the connector can authenticate with Jama. Micro Focus recommends that you use the OAuth configuration tool that is supplied with the connector.

NOTE: There is no need to complete this procedure if you ran the OAuth configuration tool during the installation process.

To configure OAuth authentication

1. Open the folder where you installed the connector.
2. Open the file `oauth_tool.cfg` in a text editor.

3. In the `[OAuthTool]` section, set the following parameters:

   `AppKey` | The client ID provided by Jama (see Create OAuth Credentials).
   `AppSecret` | The client secret provided by Jama (see Create OAuth Credentials).
   `TokenUrl` | Replace the placeholder `{JamaUrl}` with the URL of the Jama repository, for example `https://jama.example.com`.

   Do not modify the other parameters in this section.

4. Open a command-line window and run `oauth_tool.exe`.

   The OAuth tool generates an OAuth sites file. You can now configure a task to retrieve data from Jama. See Retrieve Information from Jama.
