Authentication Method Id
The Authentication method ID is a unique and non-editable value used to identify the authentication method itself. This is a required field and can be referenced as an installation parameter in Templafy Desktop deployment or distributed via Registry key. By doing so, users will not have to select an authentication method each time Refresh Token is being renewed and the login shall succeed quietly without their interaction
Login Button Name
This name will be shown to the users when logging into Templafy. Users will be asked to select their respective authentication method. It is therefore imperative to give it a meaningful and distinctive name to better guide them through the login process. To get more information how this is displayed to the users, kindly refer to the article Multiple authentication methods- end user perspective
What is Domain hint?
Every Azure Active Directory can be connected with one or more DNS domains. Usually, the default domain format assigned by Microsoft is "mycompanydomain.onmicrosoft.com". More often than not, however, the primary domain is set to be the same as your email domain "mycompanydomain.com"
If you are not certain which domain to provide, you can always check for your primary domain in Portal.azure.com > Azure Active Directory > Overview > Tenant Information
What is Azure Tenant ID?
Tenant ID
is a globally unique identifier (GUID) that is different than your tenant name or domain. It can be found under Tenant properties in your Azure portal.
To look it up you need to navigate to Portal.azure.com > Azure Active Directory > Properties
