Configure credentials

Once the capture scope is defined, you must configure authentication credentials on the Credentials page to allow Cohesity Alta SaaS Protection to access and protect your SaaS workloads.

You can perform the following actions on the Credentials page:

Assign Microsoft 365 app registrations
- Cohesity has provisioned Microsoft 365 app registrations for your tenant.
- These preconfigured apps include the necessary permissions required for backup and restore operations.
- You need to assign the required number of apps to the connectors.
See Assign Microsoft 365 apps registration.
Approve Microsoft 365 app registrations

There are two ways to approve app registrations:
- Manual approval:
  The Global Admin can approve each app manually.
  See Approve Microsoft 365 apps using the App Consent Grant utility.
- Using the App Consent Grant Utility:
  The Global Admin can use this tool to automate the approval process.
