Edit in Excel BC20 issue

Posted on by mnitcomputerguy 22

I'm seeing a BC20 install where edit in excel isn't working. Had this working with BC19 onprem no problem.  

The error is "no authentication realm is defined" yet aad authentication in the web client is working fine.  

Has anyone else seen this with the edit in excel/BC20 feature?

    You need to run a setup process for this on prem, the process is documented here:

    Hope this helps you.

    Hi, maybe it has something to do with the update below.
