Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

Double-check the configuration of your application and ensure that the correct client secret is being used. If you're still facing issues, consider regenerating the client secret and updating your application's configuration accordingly. Additionally, check if there are any typos or formatting errors in the client secret value

there is a similar thread with the same problem

you can check this thread

In addition

If your client secret has expired, you need to generate a new one.

If you've generated a new client secret, make sure to update your application's configuration with the new secret

@SohamPrasad Girde (Wipro Designit Services, Inc.) Thanks for reaching here! To elaborate here-

The error message "Invalid client secret provided. Ensure the secret being sent in the request is the client secret value, not the client secret ID"

typically occurs when the client secret value that you are using to authenticate your application is incorrect.

To resolve this issue, you should verify that you are using the correct client secret value. Here are some steps you can follow:

Go to the Azure portal and navigate to your application registration.

Click on the "Certificates & secrets" tab.

Make sure that you are using the correct client secret value. If you are not sure, you can create a new client secret by clicking on the "New client secret" button.

Copy the client secret value and use it to authenticate your application.

If you are still experiencing issues after verifying the client secret value, you may want to check that your application registration has the correct permissions and that your authentication code is correctly configured to use the client secret.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
