# Approve Microsoft sign-in at your school

> Fix “Need admin approval” by granting consent to CuraCourse in Microsoft Entra ID.

## Who this is for
This guide is for Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) administrators at schools and districts. If students or teachers see **Need admin approval** when they choose **Sign in with Microsoft**, your organization only lets administrators approve new apps.

CuraCourse can't change this setting. Only an administrator for your organization can approve the app.

## What CuraCourse accesses
Microsoft sign-in shares only the user's name and email address with CuraCourse.

## Approve CuraCourse
You need the Global Administrator, Privileged Role Administrator, Cloud Application Administrator, or Application Administrator role.

1. Go to [curacourse.com/login](https://www.curacourse.com/login) and choose **Sign in with Microsoft**.
2. Sign in with your administrator account.
3. Select **Consent on behalf of your organization**, then choose **Accept**.

This approves CuraCourse for everyone in your organization. Ask users to close the sign-in window and try again.

## If CuraCourse is already listed
If someone has already tried to sign in, CuraCourse may already appear in your tenant. You can approve it there instead:

1. Sign in to the [Microsoft Entra admin center](https://entra.microsoft.com).
2. Go to **Entra ID → Enterprise apps → All applications** and open **CuraCourse**. To confirm you have the right one, check that its application ID is:
   `c46ce13f-b550-47ca-ac59-67e5e9d17e45`
3. Under **Security**, choose **Permissions**, then **Grant admin consent for** your organization.
4. Review the permissions and choose **Accept**.

If **Assignment required?** is set to **Yes** under **Properties**, also add your users or groups under **Users and groups**.

## Until it's approved
Users can sign in with their school email address and a password or a sign-in link sent by email. They can switch to Microsoft sign-in once it's approved.

## Still blocked?
Check that you approved the app with the application ID above. If users are still blocked, [contact support](https://www.curacourse.com/contact?topic=support).
