Connector for Microsoft Exchange - Authentication - OAuth2 - App registration

Azure Active Directory is now Microsoft Entra ID

Please note that Microsoft has renamed "Azure Active Directory" to "Entra ID".

Further information about this can be found under the following links:

To be able to access the various applications from Microsoft 365 (OneDrive, Exchange, SharePoint, etc.) from your Intrexx portal requires that you first register it with Microsoft Azure as an app.

During the registration of your Intrexx portal in Microsoft Azure, a client ID (application ID), a tenant ID (directory ID) and a client secret are generated.

You will need this information, or part of it, later to set up a corresponding data source in the Intrexx Portal Manager.

Step-by-step guide

To register an Intrexx portal in Microsoft Azure, proceed as follows:

  1. Log in to Microsoft Azure with (https://portal.azure.com or https://entra.microsoft.com/) using your Microsoft 365 login data.

    You will find yourself on the Microsoft Azure homepage.

    You can register your Intrexx portal as an app via the menu item App registrations or via Azure Active Directory.

    The following provides a description for the Azure Active Directory.

  2. Click on Azure Active Directory.

    You will now be on the Azure Active Directory homepage.

  3. Click on the menu item "App registrations".
    You will now be on the "App registrations" page.
