Answer 2

@Kumkuse - Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.

Registering a service principal can only be done through the Azure portal or Microsoft Graph API. The Azure portal provides a user interface for managing Azure resources, including service principals. On the other hand, Microsoft Graph API provides programmatic access to Azure AD resources, including service principals.

If you have any further questions or need more information, please let me know.
