Unable to grant consent for AD app with super permissions in BC with trial

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by ddrudge 11

I created a trial account Business Central account and am trying to set up api access using an AAD app.

I'm using the below guides to set this up

https://www.kauffmann.nl/2021/07/06/service-to-service-authentication-in-business-central-18-3-how-to-set-up/

On the AAD side, I was able to create the app and grant consent there.

I believe the step I'm missing is the "Grant Consent" step in Business Central itself.  I cannot grant consent though - the button is disabled.  This is true for both myself (I have been granted all permissions) and for our main admin, who has all permissions.  Specifically, I can see in AAD on the "Assigned Roles" page for my user I can see that I have "Global Administrator" and "Application Administrator" (and many more).

So how do grant consent in this case?

    Ok, it looks like I had missed a warning when configuring my test app:

    "Starting November 9th, 2020 end users will no longer be able to grant consent to newly registered multitenant apps without verified publishers."

    I switched it to a single tenant, then "Grant Consent" became available.  It looks like I could have added an MDN publisher ID too, but I don't think that is available for a trial account.  Anyways, I can use the BC API now.

    Hi, As far as I know, you don't need to click Grant Consent in BC.
    Below are the steps I tested, I hope it can give you some hints.

    Have you tried to delete the AAD App in BC and re create it?
