> Connect UiPath to Facebook using OAuth 2.0 with your Client ID, Client Secret, and Scope from a registered Meta OAuth application.

## Prerequisites

To create a connection, you need the following credentials:

* Client ID
* Client secret

To learn how to retrieve the credentials, refer to the [Facebook documentation](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/guides/advanced/manual-flow/).

:::note
When registering your OAuth application in Facebook, 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.
