Registering a client application on the Microsoft Azure portal

Last Updated : Jun 19, 2023 |

About this task

Register a custom client application to reduce the contact center load and improve the application performance. When adding a client application, you must keep the default account type setting to register it for a single tenant. If you have several tenants in your deployment, you must update the application properties after uploading the application manifest file. For more information about registering and configuring applications on the Microsoft Azure portal, see the Microsoft identity platform documentation.

Registering an application for several tenants might impact the application performance, as Microsoft Graph applies throttling limits to all the tenants. For more information about Microsoft Graph throttling limits, see the Throttling section in the Microsoft Graph documentation.

Before you begin
