# Create a Transport Destination and Configure the SAP Integration Suite Transport Landscape
<!-- description --> Create a transport destination in the administrative subaccount in the SAP BTP source account using the credentials of the service key of the SAP Content Agent instance on the target subaccount. Then configure the SAP Integration Suite transport landscape in SAP Cloud Transport Management service using the transport destination.  

## Prerequisites

   - You've completed tutorial [Set Up the SAP Integration Suite Target Subaccount](btp-transport-management-cpi-03-set-up-target-account).
   - You have the details of the **service key of the SAP Content Agent instance** in the **target** subaccount at hand that you created in [Set Up the SAP Integration Suite Target Subaccount](btp-transport-management-cpi-03-set-up-target-account). 
   - You've set up SAP Cloud Transport Management service in the central administrative subaccount. If you haven't done that, follow the tutorial [Get Started with SAP Cloud Transport Management](btp-transport-management-getting-started).
   

## You will learn

   - How to create a transport destination to address the target endpoint of a deployment process 
   - How to configure a transport landscape in SAP Cloud Transport Management service
   

## Scenario Overview

In this tutorial, you are back in the SAP BTP source account, in the central administrative subaccount used for SAP Cloud Transport Management service.  

You configure a transport destination so that SAP Cloud Transport Management knows about the target endpoint of the deployment process. This is usually the deploy endpoint of the service whose content is to be transported. When SAP Content Agent is used for deployment, this is the endpoint of SAP Content Agent in the target account. The transport destination is used to pass the transported integration content to SAP Content Agent on the target subaccount, and SAP Content Agent will use the *CloudIntegration* destination to import this content. 

You configure the transport landscape in SAP Cloud Transport Management service. This includes transport nodes as representations of the source and target endpoints of the deployment processes in the landscape, as well as transport routes to connect the transport nodes. In this tutorial, you create a source node representing your SAP Integration Suite source subaccount, and a target node representing your SAP Integration Suite target subaccount. In the target node configuration, you assign the previously created transport destination pointing to SAP Content Agent in the target subaccount.

2. In the **Create Destination** window, enter details for the following fields (1), and choose **Create** (2):
    >Keep the values of fields not mentioned in the table unchanged.

    | Field | Value |
    | ---------- | ------------- |
    | **Name** | Enter a name, for example: `CAS_on_target` |
    | **Description** | For example: `Content Agent on Target` |
    | **URL** | Enter the value of the `url` from the details of the service key of the SAP Content Agent instance in the target subaccount that you created in [Set Up the SAP Integration Suite Target Subaccount](btp-transport-management-cpi-03-set-up-target-account). For example: `https://content-agent-engine.cfapps.us10.hana.ondemand.com` |
    | **Authentication** | Select **OAuth2ClientCredentials**. |
    | **Client ID** | Enter the value of `clientid` from the `uaa` section of the service key details. |
    | **Client Secret** | Enter the value of the `clientsecret` from the `uaa` section of the service key details. |
    | **Token Service URL** | Enter the value of `url` from the `uaa` section of the service key details and append `/oauth/token` to the URL. For example: `https://87654321trial.authentication.us10.hana.ondemand.com/oauth/token` |

    >You can test the destination by displaying its details, and choosing **Check Connection**. However, a successful check result doesn't guarantee successful deployment. We recommend that you run a test transport after completing the entire configuration of the transport scenario. This helps ensure that you've correctly completed all configuration tasks and have all necessary authorizations.
