AADSTS700016: Application with identifier 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx' was not found in the directory

Question

AADSTS700016: Application with identifier 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx' was not found in the directory 'XXXX'. This can happen if the application has not been installed by the administrator of the tenant or consented to by any user in the tenant. You may have sent your authentication request to the wrong tenant.

This happen when i run the "Invoke-IntuneDocumentation -FullDocumentationPath c:\temp\IntuneDoc.docx" for Automatic Intune Documentation.

I have attempted to grant permission on Azure Enterprise Application, but the "Grant Admin Consent" option is grayed out.

Answer 1

Hello Jimmy Contreras

Thanks for your question

Regarding the "Grant Admin Consent" option being grayed out, this usually happens when the user account you're using doesn't have sufficient privileges to grant consent for the application at the tenant level.

As a solution, I will recommend you elevate your access to an administrative role capable of performing this action, like the Global Admin.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/entra/identity/role-based-access-control/delegate-by-task#enterprise-applications

If you're not logged in with such an account, you might need to reach out to your Azure AD administrator to perform the consent operation or elevate your permissions accordingly.

Answer 2

@Jimmy Contreras, Thanks for posting in Q&A. For the error, it seems there's no registered application existing with the registration application id you used. And you need to manual create an app Registration with required permission.

Note: Non-Microsoft link, just for the reference.

In addition, I notice the Intune & Azure AD Conditional Access Documentation seems to be depreciated which mentioned in this link:

Hope the above information can help.
