Create Application User

Azure Active Directory authentication with Microsoft Dynamics 365 can be configured for authentication via user name & password or multi-factor authentication (MFA). MFA provides a higher level of security by prompting users for an additional form of identification, such as a code on their mobile app, a one-time password, or biometrics(e.g., fingerprint scan).

To support MFA, the integration of Digital Assistant with Anthology Reach has been updated to work with Application Users configured in Anthology Reach/Microsoft Dynamics 365. When creating a tenant for Digital Assistant version 1.1 and later, we will use the Client Secret and Client ID of the Application User configured in Anthology Reach instead of the Username and Password.
