       https://<site collection url>/_layouts/15/AppRegNew.aspx
  3. The App Registration form appears.
  4. Complete the form:
    1. Client ID: Click Generate to generate the Client ID
    2. Client Secret: Click Generate to generate the Client Secret
    3. Title: Enter a title for the app. Upland BA Insight recommends that you use a name that will be easily recognizable as the preview app.
    4. App Domain: Enter the domain name from the Azure Web App. This should be the domain name only. Do NOT include "https" at the front of the path.
    5. Redirect URL: Enter the Azure Web App URL, adding "/default.aspx" to the end of the URL.
  5. Click Create.
