# Token storage

Advanced Identity Cloud OAuth 2.0-related services are *stateless* unless otherwise indicated. This means that no OAuth 2.0/OIDC token information is stored in your Advanced Identity Cloud tenant. Instead, tokens are stored in the core token service (CTS) token store (*server-side*), or presented to the client application (*client-side*).

Both client-side and server-side token storage support all of Advanced Identity Cloud's OAuth 2.0 features.

## Configure token storage

By default, OAuth 2.0 tokens are configured for [client-side](client-side-tokens.html) storage.

You can update the token storage location to [server-side](server-side-tokens.html) under Native Consoles > Access Management.

1. Choose one of the following options:

   1. To configure token storage for *all* client applications, go to Realms > *Realm Name* > Services > OAuth2 Provider.

   2. To override OAuth 2.0 provider settings per client, go to Realms > *Realm Name* > Applications > OAuth 2.0 > Clients > *Client ID* > OAuth2 Provider Overrides.

      |   | You must set Enable OAuth2 Provider Overrides for the setting to apply. |
