Hello everyone,
My main goal relating to this problem is that I want to integrate SharePoint Online, hosted on the cloud not on premise, with Dynamics NAV 2015, also hosted on the cloud on an Azure VM. I believe the best way to do this is by taking the steps on the following
guide:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn271706(v=nav.80).aspx
It is definitely a helpful guide, but I'm confused on certain parts. In particular, in order to obtain Single Sign On (SSO) which is a necessary step the guide refers to this sub-guide:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn414569(v=nav.80).aspx
On this sub-guide is a section titled "Configuring Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server for Azure AD". I have been able to figure the rest out just fine, but this section is very confusing. I'm stuck at the part where it mentions the following:
"To
configure SOAP and OData web services for Azure AD authentication, in the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server configuration, you must specify the App ID URI that is registered for Microsoft Dynamics NAV in the Azure AD. The App ID URI is typically the same as the wtrealmparameter
value of the ACSUri setting
in the configuration files for the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client and Microsoft Dynamics NAV Windows client."
I honestly do not understand what it is trying to tell me. I am new to NAV and Azure AD, and I can't tell if it wants me to make an App in Azure AD then enter that value somewhere into NAV, or if NAV should supply me with information to put into AD, etc.
It mentions the 'ACSUri' and 'wtrealmparameter' values but I cannot find either one in any of the configuration files I've looked at.
If anyone has more insight into this process or a better guide than what Microsoft has provided I would be very grateful. Please let me know if I didn't put enough information down or if I'm missing a key detail. I'm basically just trying to follow the guide
provided, but can't parse the information well enough. Thank you in advance for taking a look!
