Recently, charge or spin nonlinear transport with nontrivial topological properties in crystal materials has attracted much attention. In this paper, we perform a comprehensive symmetry analysis for all 122 magnetic point groups (MPGs) and provide a useful dictionary for charge and spin nonlinear transport from Berry curvature dipole, Berry connection polarizability and Drude term with nontrivial topological nature. The results are obtained by making a full symmetry investigation on matrix representations of six nonlinear response tensors. We further identify every MPG that can accommodate two or three of the nonlinear tensors. The present work gives a solid theoretical basis for overall understanding of the second-order nonlinear responses in realistic materials.
