Description
Description of the issue
Trying to creating a New AADApplication, along with specifying Owners , AADApplicationPermissions and AdminConsent settings to true. Compilation is good.
But, when .MOF file is applied FIRST time -
a. Application gets created
b. Owners are NOT being set. Even though I mentioned 1 or 2 users as owners, they are not being set. Only owner at this time on the AADApplication is my DSC App reg, which created the app.
c. Application permissions (delegated & apponly) are being set .
d. But AdminConsent is not being set to true, even though .MOF file contains it as TRUE.
When I apply same .MOF file again (ie with same Application Displayname), this time
a. Owners mentioned (above 1 or 2 users) - are being set correctly now.
b. AdminConsent - still NOT being set to true (though .MOF file has correct value)
Suspected code block: MSFT_AADApplication.psm1 (Version : 1.25.611.1)
Line 742 : $backCurrentOwners = $currentAADApp.Owners
as this is new Application (first time), $currentAADApp will be $null. It is not clear why line 743 needed.
Line 743 : $currentParameters.Remove('Owners')
Line 954 - 957: New-MgApplication with $currentParameters. Doesnt contains 'Owners' (removed in 743).
LIne 1078 - 1106 : Owners are being added / removed. But this entire section some how is not being called for first time creation.
Line 1131 - 1211 ; Permissions getting applied, but missing 'Adminconsent'
