Before starting, ensure you have:
A Microsoft 365 user account.
Go to the Azure Portal.
In the left-hand menu, click Microsoft Entra ID.
Select App Registrations, then click New registration.

Save the Application (client) id and the Directory (tenant) id.
Go to Manage, then API permissions. Click Add a permission.
Select Microsoft Graph.
Select Application permissions, find and select the Files.ReadWrite.All permission. If you're going to use a SharePoint connector, you'll also need to select the Sites.Read.All permission. Click Add permissions.
Select Grant admin consent for Default Directory, and confirm when prompted.
Go to Manage, then Certificates & secrets. Click on New client secret.
Enter a description for the client secret, then click Add.
