The following process shows how to resolve this problem. ## Review your settings Open your Azure [Enterprise application settings](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/StartboardApplicationsMenuBlade/UserSettings/menuId/). Under **Enterprise Applications** > **Users can consent to apps accessing company data on their behalf**, check whether Yes or No is selected. - If **No** is selected, an Azure AD administrator for the customer tenant will need to provide consent for the organization. Depending on the configuration with Azure AD, users might be able to submit a request right from the same dialog box. If there’s no option to ask for admin consent, users need to request for these permissions to be added to their Azure AD admin. Go to the following section for more information. - If **Yes** is selected, ensure the Windows Defender Security Intelligence app setting **Enabled for users to sign in?** is set to **Yes** [in Azure](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/ManagedAppMenuBlade/Properties/appId/f0cf43e5-8a9b-451c-b2d5-7285c785684d/objectId/4a918a14-4069-4108-9b7d-76486212d75d). If **No** is selected, you'll need to request an Azure AD admin enable it.   ## Implement Required Enterprise Application permissions This process requires a global or application admin in the tenant. 1. Open [Enterprise Application settings](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/ManagedAppMenuBlade/Permissions/appId/f0cf43e5-8a9b-451c-b2d5-7285c785684d/objectId/4a918a14-4069-4108-9b7d-76486212d75d). 2. Select **Grant admin consent for organization**. 3. If you're able to do so, review the API permissions required for this application, as the following image shows. Provide consent for the tenant. ![grant consent image.](images/msi-grant-admin-consent.jpg) 4. If the administrator receives an error while attempting to provide consent manually, try either [Option 1](#option-1-approve-enterprise-application-permissions-by-user-request) or [Option 2](#option-2-provide-admin-consent-by-authenticating-the-application-as-an-admin) as possible workarounds.   ## Option 1 Approve enterprise application permissions by user request > [!Note] > This is currently a preview feature. Azure Active Directory admins will need to allow for users to request admin consent to apps. Verify the setting is configured to **Yes** in [Enterprise applications](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/StartboardApplicationsMenuBlade/UserSettings/menuId/). ![Enterprise applications user settings.](images/msi-enterprise-app-user-setting.jpg) More information is available in [Configure Admin consent workflow](/azure/active-directory/manage-apps/configure-admin-consent-workflow). Once this setting is verified, users can go through the enterprise customer sign-in at [Microsoft security intelligence](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/filesubmission), and submit a request for admin consent, including justification. ![Contoso sign in flow.](images/msi-contoso-approval-required.png) Admin will be able to review and approve the application permissions [Azure admin consent requests](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/StartboardApplicationsMenuBlade/AccessRequests/menuId/). After providing consent, all users in the tenant will be able to use the application.   ## Option 2 Provide admin consent by authenticating the application as an admin This process requires that global admins go through the Enterprise customer sign-in flow at [Microsoft security intelligence](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/filesubmission). ![Consent sign in flow.](images/msi-microsoft-permission-required.jpg) Then, admins review the permissions and make sure to select **Consent on behalf of your organization**, and then select **Accept**. All users in the tenant will now be able to use this application. ## Option 3: Delete and readd app permissions If neither of these options resolve the issue, try the following steps (as an admin): 1. Remove previous configurations for the application. Go to [Enterprise applications](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/ManagedAppMenuBlade/Properties/appId/f0cf43e5-8a9b-451c-b2d5-7285c785684d/objectId/982e94b2-fea9-4d1f-9fca-318cda92f90b) and select **delete**. ![Delete app permissions.](images/msi-properties.png) 2. Capture TenantID from [Properties](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/ActiveDirectoryMenuBlade/Properties). 3. Replace {tenant-id} with the specific tenant that needs to grant consent to this application in the URL below. Copy this URL into browser. The rest of the parameters are already completed. ``https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant-id}/v2.0/adminconsent?client_id=f0cf43e5-8a9b-451c-b2d5-7285c785684d&state=12345&redirect_uri=https%3a%2f%2fwww.microsoft.com%2fwdsi%2ffilesubmission&scope=openid+profile+email+offline_access`` ![Permissions needed.](images/msi-microsoft-permission-requested-your-organization.png) 4. Review the permissions required by the application, and then select **Accept**. 5. Confirm the permissions are applied in the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/ManagedAppMenuBlade/Permissions/appId/f0cf43e5-8a9b-451c-b2d5-7285c785684d/objectId/ce60a464-5fca-4819-8423-bcb46796b051). ![Review that permissions are applied.](images/msi-permissions.jpg) 6. Sign in to [Microsoft security intelligence](https://www.microsoft.com/wdsi/filesubmission) as an enterprise user with a non-admin account to see if you have access. If the warning is not resolved after following these troubleshooting steps, call Microsoft support.
