  • Key Concepts: 
    OAuth 2.0 scope is a security component of the SAP Business Suite that allows users to access certain resources on a server without having to provide their credentials. It is based on the OAuth 2.0 protocol, which is an open standard for authorization. The scope defines the set of permissions that a user has when accessing a resource, such as read, write, or delete.
    
    How to use it: 
    To use OAuth 2.0 scope, users must first register their application with the SAP Business Suite. Once registered, they can then request an access token from the server. This token will contain the scope of permissions that the user has been granted. The user can then use this token to access the resources on the server that they have been granted access to.
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When using OAuth 2.0 scope, it is important to ensure that only the necessary permissions are granted to users. This will help to ensure that users are not able to access resources that they should not have access to. Additionally, it is important to keep track of which users have been granted which permissions in order to ensure that only authorized users are able to access the resources they need.
