The way to get credentials in daraja 2.0 is to go to the api's page and select the b2c simulate option choose the api credentials to use on the simulator the credentials will be generated in the simualtor you can then copy and paste the credentials

For those like me who are here looking for Test credentials for Daraja API V2 Sandbox, you can send an email to APIfeedback@safaricom.co.ke or APIsupport@safaricom.co.ke and they will send you updated credentials. I realized they get updated after a while.
