# Set up connection and credential alias for third-party embedding model

# Set up connection and credential alias for third-party embedding model {#ariaid-title1}

Set up connection and credential record for your aliases to authenticate an integration between your ServiceNow instance and third-party embedding model.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## About this task

The system provides the default connection and credential alias for Azure OpenAI Embedding model (text-embedding-3-large) and Gemini Text Embedding model (text-embedding-004). Set up these default aliases to manage the secure
connection of your ServiceNow instance with either of the embedding model. A connection and credential alias includes the endpoint URL of the models and the login details, such as OAuth token or API keys to tell the
system how to connect to these third-party models.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllConnections \& CredentialsConnection \& Credential Aliases.
2. Select an alias that you want to set up.
   * To set up the embedding model alias for Azure OpenAI Embedding, select Azure OpenAI.
   * To set up the embedding model alias for Google Gemini Text Embedding, select Google Gemini API.
