How to get the app verified

Prerak Sola 0

I have created an App Registration in the Azure portal. I have also verified my root domain but when a user hits the "Sign in with Microsoft" they are still seeing "unverified".

How are you supposed to get verified?

I saw some documentation about requiring a Microsoft Partner account number but I don't see the "Publisher verification" section in the App Registration > Branding page as shown in the documentation.

For some more context:

This is a new Azure account created via the free credits.
It uses the default tenant that gets created during sign-up
I have the "Global Administrator" role on the directory
The only reason I need the app is so I can allow users to login via their Microsoft account in to my application (work or personal)

All the steps in the integration assistant are are completed.

The flow is also working fine. Users are able to login into my application via their Microsoft account. The only blocking thing right now is the "unverified" status on the consent screen.

Thank you.

Hi @Prerak Sola ,

This issue may occur if the following configurations are not set up correctly. If these options are not configured, the consent prompt will display as "unverified," even if the publisher domain has already been added. Could you please confirm whether these configurations have been applied.

Please refer to Mark your app as publisher verified on how to configure these settings.

Hi @Anonymous

Thank you for getting back.

As mentioned in the question, I don't see the "Publisher verification" section where I can add the MPN ID. Here's the screenshot again for reference.

Do I need to configure these settings at some other place?

Hello @Prerak Sola ,

There are some prerequisites to use publisher verification.

The app that's to be publisher verified must be registered by using an Microsoft Entra ID work or school account. Apps that are registered by using a Microsoft account can't be publisher verified.

The app must be registered in an Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) tenant and have a publisher domain set. The feature is not supported in Microsoft Entra ID B2C tenant.

Can you check and confirm if the application that you have registered is registered by using an Microsoft Entra ID work or school account.

You can also check the other requirements in below article,

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi @Anonymous

Can you check and confirm if the application that you have registered is registered by using an Microsoft Entra ID work or school account.

Where could I check this?

For the pre-requisites:

The app must be registered in an Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) tenant and have a publisher domain set. The feature is not supported in Microsoft Entra ID B2C tenant.

I see the the following details in the Entra admin center. The type says "Azure AD B2C", so it's unclear if its an Azure AD tenant or B2C tenant.

Could you please clarify which one is it?

We are on the free plan which comes with a single pre-configured, so I believe, I can't create another tenant. If that's the case, can I even get my app verified or will we need to switch to a paid subscription?

Please let me know if you need any more details.

Hello @Prerak Sola ,

Based on the details provided from the Entra admin center, it appears that you are using a Microsoft Entra ID B2C tenant.
Unfortunately, Microsoft Entra ID B2C applications do not support publisher verification. However, if your application is registered as an internal Microsoft Entra ID application within a standard Entra ID tenant, you can ensure it is marked as publisher verified. This would remove the ‘unverified’ tag during the login process.
Regarding the addition of an MPN ID, as outlined in the https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/fundamentals/get-started-premium (Mark your app as publisher verified) documentation, this process is only supported within a Microsoft Entra ID tenant. Based on the screenshot you provided, it looks like you are currently working within a B2C tenant, which does not support publisher verification. Additionally, publisher domains are not supported for Azure AD B2C app registrations.
Reference: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity-platform/troubleshoot-publisher-verification#b2ctenantnotallowed

Since you are using the free plan, creating a new tenant is not an option. To create a new tenant, you would need a Microsoft Entra P1 or P2 license, which must be associated with a directory linked to a valid subscription.

For further guidance, you may refer to this official Microsoft documentation.
