It’s been a little while since I’ve written a Native Azure AD app, but as I was doing so today I got poked in the eye again. I was logging in and using my app no problem with an account from the same tenant where the app was registered in Azure AD. However when I tried logging in with a user from a different tenant, it failed with the error message “Application with identifier xxx was not found in the directory ‘foo.com'”.
I’ve seen that before but it’s been so long that I had to do some hunting around. I temporarily was sent off course by a suggestion I found (that seemed strangely familiar) to set the oauth2AllowImplicitFlow property to true. That turned out to not matter at all, but it did at least get me to take a look at the manifest, rather than at the application properties in the Azure portal.
Once in the manifest I found the property that needed to be updated: availableToOtherTenants. Set that to true, tried my app again, and my login with a user from a different tenant worked great. Just thought I would add this to the blog in case you get stuck in the same spot. These things always seem to take a bit of effort to figure out.
