Create a OneDrive for Business App Using the Custom Configuration

If you can't disable multi-factor authentication for the Office 365 global administrator account, which is required by the express configuration option, use the custom configuration option.

Before using the custom configuration, you must register the Azure app for OneDrive for Business with Azure AD.

To configure multiple OneDrive for Business apps based on geographic locations, create Azure security groups with dynamic membership rules based on geographic attributes, and then create region-specific storage and OneDrive for Business apps.

Procedure

1. From the Command Center navigation pane, go to Service Catalog.

2. On the Microsoft 365 tile, click Configure, and then select OneDrive.

3. Start the O365 trial or continue to the configuration tool:

   • If you have never configured an Office 365 app before, the Office 365 configuration tool appears.

     1. Click Start Trial.

        The Configure Office 365 message box appears. You must wait while the Commvault Cloud software activates the Commvault Cloud subscription, creates Office 365 plans, and creates a backup plan for Office 365 backups.

     2. When this process is complete, click Close.

   • If you have configured an Office 365 app before, the Office 365 Trial message appears.

4. Click Continue.

   The Create OneDrive for Business App tool appears.

5. On the Region tab, from the Storage region list, select a region, and then click Next.

   The Application tab appears.

6. In the Name box, enter a name for the app.

7. From the Cloud region list, select the region that hosts OneDrive for Business:

   • If OneDrive for Business is not hosted in a national cloud, select Default (Global Service).

   • If OneDrive for Business is hosted in a national cloud, select the region.

     Note

     You cannot select China as the region.

8. Select Custom configuration (Advanced).

   If you did not manually register the Azure app with Azure AD, you can use the custom configuration toolkit, which automates the registration process.

9. In the Application ID box, enter the Azure application ID.

10. In the Application secret box, enter the Azure application secret.

11. In the Azure directory ID box, enter the Azure directory ID.

12. For instructions about locating this information, see Create a Microsoft Entra application and service principal that can access resources in the Microsoft documentation.

13. Verify the requirements, and then select the The Azure app is authorized from the Azure portal with all the required permissions check box.

14. Click Create.

    The Summary tab appears.

15. Click Close.
