When creating a user flow for B2B correlation, I got the message.
"aad-extensions-app. Do not modify. Used by AAD for storing user data."

I tried troubleshooting, but the application was not found.

    I was able to find "aad-extensions-app". For that, I needed to use AzurePortal preview. As a result, "aad-extensions-app" was not deleted. It was just not displayed. The issue was that I was getting the message "aad-extensions-app. Do not modify. Used by AAD for storing user data." ======================= ![132672-01.png][1] ======================= ![132627-02.png][2] ======================= ![132665-03.png][3] [1]: /api/attachments/132672-01.png?platform=QnA [2]: /api/attachments/132627-02.png?platform=QnA [3]: /api/attachments/132665-03.png?platform=QnA

    Hello anonymous user,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    This application "aad-extensions-app" would be created automatically when you enable self-service sign-up features as shown below and If you accidentally deleted the aad-extensions-app, you have 30 days to recover it. You can restore the app using either the Azure AD PowerShell module or Deleted Application (Preview) blade.

    Could you please confirm, since when you noticed this change? was this worked before or its new setup completely?

    because, If "aad-extensions-app" deleted for more than 30 days, then unfortunately app registrations cannot be restored and we recommend to create new Azure AD Tenant.

    Setup Self-Service

    Hi @sikumars-msft

    Thank you for the information.
    I also checked the Azure Portal, but "aad-extensions-app" was not found.

    Is it possible that "aad-extensions-app" will not be created even if self-service sign-up is enabled?
