How to set up Microsoft Entra Applications (OAuth) for the Abakion Shipping Connector

How to set up a Microsoft Entra Application (OAuth) for the Abakion Shipping Connector. From Business Central v. 23, Azure Active Directory is replaced by Microsoft Entra Applications.

The setup consists of two parts:

  • Create an App Registration in Microsoft Entra Applications (Azure Active Directory).

  • Create a Microsoft Entra Application User (Azure Active Directory Application user) in Business Central.

App Registration in Microsoft Entra ID (Azure Active Directory Authentication)

  • Search for App Registrations.

  • Click on New Registration.

  • Give the registration a name, e.g. "Shipping Connector".

  • Select Accounts in this organizational directory only.

  • Redirect URI: Web — https://businesscentral.dynamics.com/

  • Click on Register when the fields are completed, to create the App registration.

Next step is to add Permissions.

  • Open API Permissions.

  • Click on Add a permission.

  • Select Dynamics 365 Business Central.

  • Select Application Permissions.

  • Add API.ReadWrite.All and app_access.

  • Click on Add permissions to add the permissions.

  • Click on Grant admin consent for <tenant name>. This can only be done if you are an admin.

Next step is to create a secret.

  • Go to the Certificates and Secrets.

  • Click on New Client secret.

  • Write a description and set the Expiration date (maximum 24 months).

  • Copy the Value into a notepad, as this information is needed in the Business Central setup in a later step.

Note: You will only see the secret value once. It will be masked once you browse away from Certificates and Secrets.

Next step is to find the Application (Client) ID.

  • Go to Overview.

  • Copy the Application (client) ID into a notepad, as this information is needed in the Business Central setup in a later step.

Business Central Microsoft Entra Application Setup

Now it is time to switch to Business Central and set up the Microsoft Entra Application user with the connection information.

  • Open Business Central and search for Microsoft Entra App.

  • Create a new Microsoft Entra application card, if it doesn't already exist.

  • Paste the Application (Client) ID into the Client Id field (the same ID copied from the App registration overview).

  • Add the User groups that this user needs access to:

  • D365 FULL ACCESS

  • SCB SHIPPING MANAGER

  • SCB SHIPPINGMAN-CORE

Note: If additional permissions need to be granted, they can be provided here. "Super" is not allowed.

  • Go back and make sure that the State is "Enabled".

  • Click on Grant Consent.

  • Log in as an administrator to confirm access.
