Request

POST https://<hostname>:4443/v5/Organizations/{organizationId}/Applications

Request Headers

The request header must contain an authorization token of the current session.

Request Parameters

The following parameter must be specified in the URL of the request:

Parameter	Type	Description
organizationId	string	Specifies the identification number of the Office 365 organization. For more information on how to get this parameter, see Getting Organizations.

Request Body

The following table lists available request properties:

Property	Type	Description
displayName	string	Defines the name for the Azure AD application. If you create more than one application, all created applications will have the same name. Each application will have a unique identification number.
userCode	string	Sets the device code. For more information on how to get a device code, see Getting Device Code. Note: To sign in to Microsoft Azure, open the Microsoft authentication portal and specify this device code.
applicationCertificate	string	Sets the Base64 string of an SSL certificate that you want to use to access the Azure AD application. For more information on how to obtain a Base64 string, see Converting Certificate to Base64 String.
applicationCertificatePassword	string	Sets the password for the specified certificate.
count	integer	Defines the number of applications to create.

Converting Certificate to Base64 String

If you want to use a certificate to access an Azure AD application, you must provide the certificate as a Base64 string. To obtain a Base64 string, perform the following steps:

Get the certificate content from a PFX file.
Convert the certificate to a Base64 string.

To do this, you can use the following PowerShell cmdlets:

$pfx_cert = get-content '<path_to_cert>' -Encoding Byte

[System.Convert]::ToBase64String($pfx_cert) | Out-File '<path_to_file>'

where:

<path_to_cert> — path to the PFX file that you want to convert to a Base64 string.
<path_to_file> — path to a file that that will contain the resulting Base64 string. You will be able to copy the Base64 string from the file and provide the string in the body of a request to Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 REST API.

For example:

$pfx_cert = get-content 'C:\cert.pfx' -Encoding Byte

[System.Convert]::ToBase64String($pfx_cert) | Out-File 'C:\base64.txt'
