Description

Hello,

Ref: https://github.com/odoo/documentation/edit/16.0/content/applications/general/email_communication/azure_oauth.rst

Can you clarify why a multitenant application is required?

As a customer we are investigating the integration of Odoo with entra id and have the created the application with client from our tenant only which needs to use the tenanted endpoint for authentication (as oposed to the common endpoint for multitenanted apps)

For clarification:

  • We don't want users from other tenant to sign-in to odoo for our company
  • The multitenanted application are typically created to offer a service broadly as a service provider, in that sense i don't get why odoo requires us to create an application when odoo can do it for everyone (aka: letting odoo handle the app registration is one of the goal of multitenanted apps)
  • (Microsoft will put more importance on tenant validation to help customers detect trusted apps)
