  The SAP error message SOAUTH2001 indicates a mismatch between the OAuth 2.0 scope and the TADIR object name in the context of SAP's OAuth 2.0 authentication framework. This error typically arises when there is a configuration issue related to the OAuth 2.0 setup in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  
  Scope Mismatch: The OAuth 2.0 scope defined in the configuration does not match the name of the TADIR object (which represents the technical object in the SAP system).
  Configuration Error: There may be an error in the configuration of the OAuth 2.0 client or the associated service, where the scope is incorrectly defined or does not correspond to the expected TADIR object.

  Verify that the scope defined in the OAuth 2.0 client matches the expected TADIR object name.
  
  
  
  Review TADIR Object:

  Correct Naming:
  
  If there is a discrepancy in naming, update either the OAuth 2.0 scope or the TADIR object name to ensure they match.
  Follow the naming conventions used in your organization to maintain consistency.
  
  
  
  Testing:
