## Prerequisites

To create a connection, you need the following credentials:

* Client ID
* Client secret
* Scope (by default, set to `full`)

The connector uses standard OAuth 2.0 Authorization code authentication. To learn more, seee the Keap [documentation](https://developer.infusionsoft.com/getting-started-oauth-keys/).

:::note
When registering your OAuth application in Keap, make sure to set the [callback URL](connections#callback-url) to the value displayed on the connection creation page, for example `https://cloud.uipath.com/provisioning_/callback` for Automation Cloud.

## Add the Keap connection

1. Select Orchestrator from the product launcher.
2. Select a folder, and then navigate to the **Connections** tab.
3. Select **Add connection**.
4. To open the connection creation page, select the connector from the list. You can use the search bar to find the connector.
5. Enter the required credentials: client ID, client secret, and the scope.
6. Select **Connect**.

   For any secret-type field, you can select the menu next to the field and choose **Use credential asset** to reference an Orchestrator credential asset linked to an external vault instead of entering the value directly. For more information, see [Use credential assets for connections](credential-store-connections.md).
