Enter API Access Credentials (Client ID for native application)

This dialog box allows you to provide the credentials that are required in the Client ID for native application logon mode for Cloud (Google G Suite) backup sets. These credentials are used by DS-Client to access the backup source during backup configuration and backup activities or to access the restore destination during restore activities.

Client ID

Click [...], browse, and then select the JSON file that contains the OAuth 2.0 client ID and the client secret for the G Suite account for which you want to back up data when configuring a backup set, or to which you want to restore the data when configuring a restore activity. The name of the file starts with client_secret. Alternatively, type the client ID.

Note: It is assumed that you have already generated the required credentials in advance in Google API Console. For details on prerequisites, see the Knowledge Base article in “Backup from the Cloud (Google G Suite)”.

Client secret

If you have selected a JSON file in the Client ID box, this box is automatically filled. Otherwise, ensure that you have selected the appropriate JSON file.

If you have typed the client ID instead of selecting a JSON file, type the client secret that corresponds with the client ID.
