Forum Exchange Connector - Register the Application for OAuth (Graph API)

Tara Diaz
  • Updated

The following information is required to set up the Exchange Connector for your Forum + Exchange Integration.

To use OAuth, an application must have an application ID issued by Azure Active Directory. It is assumed that the application is a console application, so you need to register your application as a public client with Azure Active Directory. 

These are the required information from Azure AD and must be provided to the AgilQuest team:

  • Client ID (Exchange.client.id encoded)
  • Client Secret Value from Azure AD (Exchange.client.secret.encoded)*
  • Tenant ID to be used for the Exchange Authority URL

*AgilQuest requires a short working session with our technical engineer and your technical resource to get these values from Azure AD especially with regards to obtaining the secret value. 

 

Steps:

1. Open a browser and navigate to the Azure Active Directory admin center and login using a personal account (aka: Microsoft Account) or Work or School Account

  • Set Supported account types to Accounts in this organizational directory only (Tenant only - Single tenant).
  • Register the application as a public client with Azure Active Directory
