Consent to a Custom Azure App

When you consent to a custom Azure app with application permissions only, complete the following settings:
  1. App profile name – Enter a name for the profile.
  2. Application ID – Enter the application ID of the application that has been created in Azure by referring to theCreate a Custom Azure App .
  3. Certificate file (.pfx) – Click Browse and select your app’s private certificate (the .pfx file).
    Note: Ensure this .pfx file is paired with the .cer/.crt file uploaded to Microsoft Entra ID when your organization creates this custom app. If your organization does not have any certificates, you can create self-signed certificates by referring to Prepare a Certificate for the Custom Azure App.
  4. Certificate password – Enter the password of the certificate.
  5. Click Finish.
  6. If you want to manage Exchange mailboxes and settings / Security and distribution group objects / Microsoft 365 Defender settings, you need to assign the Exchange Administrator role to the app. For additional details on assigning the role, refer to How to Assign the Exchange Administrator Role to an App?
