Add existing Microsoft Entra applications
To add applications that already exist in your company's Microsoft Entra ID:
- In the menu bar, select Settings (gear icon) and then the Account settings workspace.
- From the left-menu, select User management. Then select the Microsoft Entra applications tab.
- Select one or more Microsoft Entra applications from the list that appears.
Note
You can use the search box to search for specific Microsoft Entra applications. If you select more than one Microsoft Entra application to add to your Partner Center account, you must assign them the same role or set of custom permissions. To add multiple Microsoft Entra applications with different roles/permissions, repeat these steps for each role or set of custom permissions.
- When you are finished selecting Microsoft Entra applications, select Add selected.
- In the Roles section, specify the role(s) or customized permissions for the selected Microsoft Entra application(s).
- Select Save.
Add new Microsoft Entra applications
If you want to grant Partner Center access to a brand-new Microsoft Entra application account, you can create one on the Microsoft Entra applications tab of the User management page. This will create a new account in your company work account (Microsoft Entra tenant), not just in your Partner Center account. If you are primarily using this Microsoft Entra application for Partner Center authentication, and don't need users to access it directly, you can enter any valid address for the Reply URL and App ID URI, as long as those values aren't used by any other Microsoft Entra application in your directory.
- In the menu bar, select Settings (gear icon) > Account settings.
- In the left-menu, select User management.
- On the Microsoft Entra applications tab, select + Create Microsoft Entra application, and then select Skip.
- Enter a name for the new Microsoft Entra application.
- Enter the Reply URL for the new Microsoft Entra application. This is the URL where users can sign in and use your Microsoft Entra application (sometimes also known as the App URL or Sign-On URL). The Reply URL can't be longer than 256 characters and must be unique within your directory.
- Enter the App ID URI for the new Microsoft Entra application. This is a logical identifier for the Microsoft Entra application that is presented when a single sign-on request is sent to Microsoft Entra ID. The App ID URI must be unique for each Microsoft Entra application in your directory. This ID can't be longer than 256 characters. For more info about the App ID URI, see Integrating applications with Microsoft Entra ID.
- Select Next.
- Select the role(s) or customized permissions for the Microsoft Entra application.
- Select Add.
After you add or create a Microsoft Entra application, you can return to the Microsoft Entra applications tab and select the application name to review settings for the application, including the Tenant ID, Client ID, Reply URL, and App ID URI.
Remove a Microsoft Entra application
To remove an application from your work account (Microsoft Entra tenant).
- In the menu bar, select Settings (gear icon) > Account settings.
- In the left-menu, select User management.
- On the Microsoft Entra applications tab, for the application that you want to remove, select Delete.
- In the dialog box that appears, select Ok.
Manage keys for a Microsoft Entra application
If your Microsoft Entra application reads and writes data in Microsoft Entra ID, it will need a key. You can create keys for a Microsoft Entra application by editing its information in Partner Center. You can also remove keys that are no longer needed.
- In the menu bar, select Settings (gear icon) > Account settings.
- In the left-menu, select User management.
- On the Microsoft Entra applications tab, select the name of the Microsoft Entra application you want to manage. All of the active keys for the Microsoft Entra application appear, including the date on which the key was created and when it will expire.
- To remove a key that is no longer needed, select Remove.
- To add a new key, select Add new key.
- You will see a screen showing the Client ID and Key values. Be sure to print or copy this information, as you won't be able to access it again after you leave this page.
- If you want to create more keys, select Add another key.
