# Creating Application-Specific Passwords

When using **Active Directory Remote Authentication**, **SAML**, or **ClassLink**, you need to create application-specific passwords with the **SchoolObjects Scanning Application** for the following tools:

- [Aware Plain Paper Scanning](/v1/docs/scanning-student-answer-documents)
- [Remote Roster Tool](/v1/docs/setting-up-the-remote-roster-tool-version-3)
- [Active Directory User Sync Tool](/v1/docs/setting-up-active-directory-user-syncing)

At this point, you will be provided with a Server URL, Username, and Password you can use to log in. Keep this information in a secure place as this is the ONLY time you will see it. The system will save this password in the application, so you should not have to enter it every time.

Administrators have the option to delete application-specific passwords. Be advised that passwords won’t work after deletion.
