Press the plus sign to add a new cloud provider. You need to add 1 for every email account that you want to add to the system.

17. Choose Service "Microsoft Azure"

Choose Type "Outlook365"

Add the application ID, Tenant ID from step 4 and Client Secret from Step 10.

Add Redirect URL https://xxxxxxxxx.connectel.io/api/cloudProviders/oauth2/microsoft/callback and change XXXX to your system name.

Then Press Save

Then we need to authenticate this cloud provider setup.

Click the three dots on the right side and choose authenticate

18. You now get a pop-up where you can login with the email that should be used by this cloud provider configuration.

19. To use modern authentication for an email account you just open the email account authentication configuration and activate "Modern Authentication" and choose the cloud provider you just added.

Remember, you have to add a separate Cloud Provider for each email account in the Connectel Plattform (Steps 15-18)

You only need to register ONE app i Azure.
