# Create an Application to Represent the Connector

To retrieve information from Yammer, you must create an application to represent the connector. You can create the application through the Yammer developers web site. Microsoft will provide you with an application key (sometimes called a client ID) and application secret (sometimes called a client secret). You will need these details to configure the connector. For more information about creating an application to represent the connector, see https://developer.yammer.com/docs/app-registration.

TIP: When asked for a Redirect URL, Micro Focus recommends you use `http://localhost:7878`/, because this is where the IDOL Connector OAuth configuration tool runs by default.
