Setting up OAuth Authentication for MCP

Hello all,

 

    I am looking to start setting up an MCP Server for my organization.  I load the MCP Server Console page, open the ITSM MCP Server record and I see "Set up OAuth" button on the page.

I found the page of: https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r/australia/platform-security/authentication/new-inbound-integration... but am not sure which OAuth I should be trying to setup.  I suspect it is: "Authorization code grant" (https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r/australia/platform-security/authentication/authorization-code-gran...) since this seems to allow permissions based on the individual user and not just a blanket application level permission.  Please let me know if I am on the right track or not!  Thank you.
