Hello. Power Platform API service principal (AppId: 0e0bf3cc-3078-4fd4-9ef3-cb6dc0245b10) is missing from my Azure AD tenant. I need it provisioned to enable API permissions for automation. Thanks. Morgan Korn. PII removed

Hello Morgan Korn,

The Power Platform API service principal doesn’t show up automatically in some tenants. Initially, I also could not find that API service principal in my tenant as below:

In such cases, Microsoft’s guidance is to force a refresh by manually creating the service principal using Microsoft Graph.

You can provision Power Platform API by running below PowerShell commands:

#Install the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK module
Install-Module Microsoft.Graph -Scope CurrentUser -Repository PSGallery -Force
Connect-MgGraph
New-MgServicePrincipal -AppId 8578e004-a5c6-46e7-913e-12f58912df43 -DisplayName "Power Platform API"

enter image description here

After running this, wait few minutes and check again.

Once it shows up, you’ll be able to add the required API permissions to your app registration.User's image

To provision the Power Platform API service principal in your Azure AD tenant, you can create it using PowerShell commands. Here’s a general approach:

  1. Install the Microsoft Graph PowerShell module if you haven't already: 
       Install-Module Microsoft.Graph -Scope CurrentUser
  2. Log in as a Microsoft Entra user with permission to create service principals: 
       Connect-MgGraph -Scopes "Directory.ReadWrite.All"
  3. Create the Service Principal for the Power Platform API using its AppId: 
       New-MgServicePrincipal -AppId "0e0bf3cc-3078-4fd4-9ef3-cb6dc0245b10"

After running these commands, check the Azure portal under Enterprise Applications to confirm that the service principal has been created successfully. You may also need to assign the necessary API permissions to this service principal after it has been provisioned.
