How to Find the Client ID, Tenant ID, and Client Secre

  1. Log into the Microsoft Azure portal.
  2. Select Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory).
  3. In the side panel, select App registrations under the Manage section.
  4. Select New registration.
  5. Under Supported account types, select the option for Accounts in this organizational directory only (single-tenant) or Accounts in any organizational directory (multi-tenant) as appropriate for your organization.
  6. Complete the registration. Once complete, the App registration overview screen will display your Application (client) ID and Directory (tenant) ID — copy both values.
  7. To generate a Client Secret, select Certificates & secrets from the side panel under Manage.
  8. Select New client secret, provide a description, choose an expiration period, and click Add.
  9. Copy the Value of the newly created secret immediately — it will not be shown again after you leave the page.
  10. Enter the Client ID, Tenant ID, and Client Secret into the corresponding fields in the DataBlend SharePoint credential and save.

Note: The App registration must be granted the appropriate SharePoint API permissions in Microsoft Entra for DataBlend to access SharePoint data. At minimum, the app will need Sites.Read.All (for collectors) or Sites.ReadWrite.All (for data targets) under Microsoft Graph API permissions, with admin consent granted.
