Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/KelvinTegelaar/CIPP/issues/1142

After clicking the Enable GDAP API button I'm getting the following error:

Failed to add SPN. Please manually execute 'New-AzureADServicePrincipal -AppId ' The error was Insufficient privileges to complete the operation.

When I execute the command in Azure AD PowerShell I get the following message:

New-AzureADServicePrincipal : Error occurred while executing NewServicePrincipal
Code: Request_MultipleObjectsWithSameKeyValue
Message: The service principal cannot be created, updated, or restored because the service principal name
https://api.partnercustomeradministration.microsoft.com is already in use.

New-AzureADServicePrincipal -AppId

When I look in Enterprise apps the AppId it lists is tied to an app called Partner Customer Delegated Administration, but I can't update the API permissions per your KB. How do I proceed from here?

Thanks,

Adam

Not a bug. Someone already used the GDAP migration tool so you can skip that step.
