Business Central API - grant admin consent error

Hi,

I'm trying to grant consent to BC API for created Azure App registration and getting following error. Is it really required to have at least one /BC online/ subscription to do this? Organization has many /BC on-premise/ perpetual licenses but they aren't visible in Azure portal. I can't find any specific and clear information what is needed to use API with BC on-premise, all articles are about BC online.

Hi, as far as I know this requires setting up SSO for the Business Central Environment first.

Hope the following helps.

@YUN ZHU
I had configured AAD authentication for BC service (exactly not WS-Federation but OpenID Connect, it's BC 22.1) and I think it's not about that. Service is working, of course AAD application is created and I can login via my AAD account into BC. Any other clues?

Maybe someone knows which step/action creates service principal for "Dynamics 365 Business Central" in Azure tenant. I would like to not buy BC online subscription especially for API but if I have to I would like to know where is official information about that and which license exactly is required.
