• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SOAUTH2011 - OAuth 2.0 client &1 already exists ?

  The SAP error message SOAUTH2011 indicates that there is an attempt to create an OAuth 2.0 client in the system, but a client with the same identifier already exists. This error typically occurs when you are trying to register a new OAuth client with an ID that is already in use.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Client ID: The most common cause of this error is that the client ID you are trying to register is already present in the system.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a misconfiguration in the OAuth client setup, leading to attempts to create a client that already exists.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Clients:

  Alternatively, you can modify the existing client if changes are required.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
