[CoE Starter Kit - BUG] HTTP with Microsoft Entra ID (preauthorized) variable must end with /

[pnoot7]

Does this bug already exist in our backlog?

• I have checked and confirm this is a new bug.

Describe the issue

When configuring the HTTP with Microsoft Entra ID (preauthorized) connector, you must make sure that the URL ends with a '/'. If you do not, it does not form the URL correctly and set up wizard will have issues/fail. If you go to check the GCC endpoints url, it says to use "https://graph.microsoft.com", but without the trailing '/' items fail. Need to add error checking to look for this, or make it very clean in set up instructions. (Error checking to catch it being my preference)

Expected Behavior

Error handling to make sure the base url contains '/' and if not, add it.

What solution are you experiencing the issue with?

Core

What solution version are you using?

April 2024

What app or flow are you having the issue with?

SetupWizard>GetTenantID

What method are you using to get inventory and telemetry?

Cloud flows

Steps To Reproduce

1. Configure the HTTP with Microsoft Entra ID (preauthorized)
2. Enter https://graph.microsoft.com for both URLS
3. Try to run set up wizard.
4. Tenant ID flow will fail, as it does not append properly
   

Anything else?

I understand this is a user error, but I am hoping the CoE team can add error checking to prevent issues for others.

Hello. Unfortunately we are not likely to have resources to add error checking around this. We are just too under too much pressure with our current deliverables which will last for the next ~6 months.
Do note that if you use the setup wizard it will fill the env var correctly.

I did use the set-up wizard, and no, it does not append correctly. If the connection is not set right, the rest fails. Maybe a quick note in the set-up documentation then would be the best bet if the team is that busy.

[Jenefer-Monroe]

Thanks I just validated the wizard does have them correct.
It could be that you were impacted by a recent change in the way env vars are updated. The Sept kit has been updated to update env vars in a new way as a result.

Should this be ignored and left blank then during install? I assume if you configure the connector it overrides the URLS you have listed. This step is where I missed the '/' and multiple flows failed with the setup wizard. Once I corrected that connector, they worked again.

Create connections
Create these connections manually ahead of installing the kit to ensure they're correctly configured.

Go to Power Automate.
Select your CoE environment and go to Data > Connections > + New connection.
Create a connection for HTTP with Microsoft Entra ID (preauthorized), and set Base Resource URL and Microsoft Entra ID Resource URI (Application ID URI) to https://graph.microsoft.com/ for commercial tenants. If your tenant is in GCC, GCC High, or DoD, check your service root endpoint for Microsoft Graph.

If its the connector that was missing the slash, that is not addressed in the setup wizard. But it also would not lead to the picture you showed. The picture you showed uses the env var.

Can you plesae let me know are you saying that the slash was missing from the connector or the env var.

[Jenefer-Monroe]

ok thanks I had misunderstood. Yes there is no way for us to check these then in the kit.

If it's not something the CoE team is going to address in either code or documentation, then just close the issue.

Happy to store as a documentation note. We cannot update the product's page though.
