#Register an App

Follow the steps below to register an app:

1. On the App registrations page, click Create.

2. On the Create app registration page, complete the following steps:

   1. Enter a name for the app.

   2. Click Add service and permission.

   3. In the Add service and permission pane, select the services and corresponding permissions that you need to grant to this app, and then click Add.

   4. Credentials enable applications to identify themselves to the authentication service when receiving tokens at a web addressable location (using an HTTPS scheme). For a higher level of assurance, we recommend using a certificate (instead of a client secret) as a credential. Follow the instructions below to configure credentials:

      • Select the Certificate tab, and then click Upload new certificate to upload a certificate (.cer or .crt file). The certificate serves as credentials that allow your application to authenticate itself, requiring no interaction from a user at runtime. If your organization does not have any certificate files, you can refer to Prepare a Certificate for the Custom Azure App to prepare a self-signed certificate.

        *Note: If your organization is using AvePoint Opus, you can generate and download a certificate in AvePoint Opus Settings > Agent management. For details, refer to the .

      • Select the Client secret tab, click Add client secret, set the Effective duration to 1 year, 2 years, or 3 years, and then click Add to generate a client secret. Client secret values cannot be entirely shown once they are saved. To get a client secret value for later use, click the Copy button to copy and save it upon creation.

      If you want to delete a certificate or client secret, click the Delete button.

3. Click Save to save your configurations.

When you finish the registration, click the app name to view the registration details, and you can copy the generated application (client) ID on the details page. You can use the client ID for authentication when leveraging the resources of AvePoint cloud services.
