Here are some helpful links from Microsoft on how to generate an Application ID in Azure:

Create the Azure App Registration with the following information:


App Registration name"Quicklaunch System Check-In"
Redirect URI  - Public Client (mobile & desktop)https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/nativeclient    - NOTE: this may be a checkbox
Redirect URI  - Public Client (mobile & desktop)urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob
Configure for multi-tennant application this is an option that may be in the redirect URL section
PermissionsMicrosoft Graph User.Read
PermissionsGrant Consent - this will prevent every user from being asked permission when they click on system check in


Once this app registration has been setup, make sure to follow the instructions below and click "Verify".  You may be prompted for further permissions to read azure active directory.
