# Authentication for Integration Adapters

Often, an external system requires an authentication mechanism for Order Management integration adapters.

Order Management relies on Salesforce Named Credentials to secure the interface.

- For instructions on using Named Credentials with Order Management, see: [Named Credentials Support for Order Management Standard](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_t_named_credentials_support_for_order_management_standard_242641.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Salesforce manages all authentication for callouts that specify a named credential as the callout endpoint. A named credential specifies the URL of a callout endpoint and its required authentication parameters in one definition.")
- For information about Salesforce Named Credentials, see: [https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=named\_credentials\_about.htm](https://help.salesforce.com/articleview?id=named_credentials_about.htm)
