This article shows you where you can configure the properties of an enterprise application in your Microsoft Entra tenant. For more information about the properties that you can configure, see Properties of an enterprise application.

Prerequisites

To configure the properties of an enterprise application, you need:

  • A Microsoft Entra user account. If you don't already have one, you can Create an account for free.
  • One of the following roles:
    • Cloud Application Administrator
    • Application Administrator, or owner of the service principal.

Configure application properties

Application properties control how the application is represented and how the application is accessed.

To configure the application properties:

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.
  2. Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > All applications.
  3. Search for and select the application that you want to use.
  4. In the Manage section, select Properties to open the Properties pane for editing.
  5. On the Properties pane, you might want to configure the following properties for your application.
    • Logo
    • User sign in options
    • App visibility to users
    • Set available URL options
    • Choose whether app assignment is required
  6. After you configure the properties according to your apps needs, select Save.

Use the following Microsoft Graph PowerShell script to configure basic application properties.

You need to sign in as at least a Cloud Application Administrator and consent to the Application.ReadWrite.All permission.
