2. Go to the selected group.

3. Select Settings> Applications.

4. In the Namefield, enter a name for your application.

5. In the Redirect URIfield, enter https://vertexaisearch.cloud.google.com/oauth-redirect .

6. In the Scopessection, select the appropriate scope based on your needs:

   • For search-only access, select read_api.
   • For search and actions (write) access, select api.

7. Select Save application. GitLab provides:

   • The OAuth2 Client ID in the Application IDfield.
   • The OAuth2 Client Secret, accessible by selecting Copyin the Secretfield.
