Hi Isabelle, We could see possible two use cases as below,
First, let say, a person uses an external authorization server and it contains already created oauth clients. Assume that user might want to use wso2 API manager with that particular authorization server, as a key manager. In that case If he/she wants to associate already existing oauth clients with API manager applications, there should be a way to do it. Second, there might be a situation where a user wants to create Oauth clients in their authorization server manually, (for example by using an API, Dynamic client registration API in OpenID connect). Then later user logging in to APIM and create an APIM application and instead of creating a new oAuth client he/she should be able to associate that manually created Oauth client with the API manager application. Both of the above use cases are more or less the same. The basic idea of this feature is, the store user will be given an opportunity to associate their manually created oAuth clients with API manager. Hi NuwanD, Yes,If they disable this feature from the config file it will only show the 'Generate' button. And these options are available for both production and sandbox environments. Regards Roshan.
