### Public and confidential clients
3232

3333
There are two types of clients that you can use to authenticate with Dataverse: public and confidential. These clients are represented by the <xref:Microsoft.Identity.Client.PublicClientApplicationBuilder> and <xref:Microsoft.Identity.Client.ConfidentialClientApplicationBuilder> classes. You can instance these classes in your app directly, for example if your app is using the Dataverse Web API, or you can use the <xref:Microsoft.PowerPlatform.Dataverse.Client.ServiceClient> class. The `ServiceClient` class handles instantiation of these clients internally based on the configuration values in the passed [connection string parameters](xrm-tooling/use-connection-strings-xrm-tooling-connect.md#connection-string-parameters).
