Creating an OAuth 2.0 Client Profile in the AS ABAP

An OAuth 2.0 client profile in the AS ABAP lists the OAuth 2.0 scopes you want to access within the service provider.

Context

The OAuth 2.0 scopes define the services this user wants to access (see the related link). Every time you request an access token for the service provider, the service provider compares the scopes requested by the AS ABAP with those configured in the service provider itself. The list of available scopes for this user must be identical to the scopes stored in the AS ABAP.
