Integrating with Microsoft allows a full data transfer and removes any manual error since the data is synced automatically once a day from Shapes.
1. In the Microsoft Entra admin center, go to "App registrations"
2. In the "App registrations" tab, create a "New registration"
3. Fill out the name, leave the rest as default and click "Register"
4. Make a note of your Application (client) ID and Directory (tenant) ID - you will need these later when integrating from the Shapes side
5. Go to the "Certificates & Secrets" tab
6. Click on "New client secret"
7. Fill out the description and expiration (note the expiration will need to be replaced manually). Click "Add" and make a note of your secret value (also required when integrating from the Shapes side)
8. Under the "API permissions" tab, click on "Add a permission"
9. Click on "Application permissions"
10. Check the boxes called User.Read.All, User.ReadWrite.All and User-Phone.ReadWrite.All, and click on "Add permissions"
11. Repeat the process for Directory.Read.All and Directory.ReadWrite.All
12. In the configured permissions, click "Grant admin consent for Shapes"
13. The status is now changed to granted and you have the permissions!
All Super Admins can integrate data from Shapes with Microsoft Azure.
