box(used for implicit flows)
:

Enter the information retrieved (Directory ID, Application ID and Client Secret) in the Portal's general parameters, choosing the Azure AD authentication type You can also choose to retain the Portal's native authentication system. Both solutions will be offered on the front-end.
