Dynamics FO (DFO)
For DFO, please note the following changes and requirements:
- Application Registration: Your application must now be registered as an Entra ID application in DFO.
- Service User: We recommend using a service user with minimal permissions for increased security.
- Admin Consent: Please note that the registration process requires admin consent for the app.

These changes are crucial for maintaining security and functionality. Please ensure you comply with these requirements.
Dynamics BC (DBC)
For DBC customers, if user profile pictures are not displaying correctly, an IT admin may need to re-consent the app. To do this, the admin should sign in to the app and navigate to the /OnboardAssist
page and follow the instructions.
