    4. In the Azure App ID field, specify the Microsoft Entra ID app ID for BlackBerry Notes or BlackBerry Tasks. For information on how obtain an Entra app ID, see Obtain an Entra app ID for BlackBerry Tasks and BlackBerry Notes.
    5. In the Office 365 Resource field, specify the URL of the Microsoft Exchange Online server. In most configurations, this field should be left blank.
    6. In the Redirect URI field, specify the URI that you entered in the Microsoft Entra ID portal. In most configurations, this field should be left blank.
    7. Select the Proxy Office 365 Modern Authentication requests (Android only) setting to force all Office 365 modern authentication requests to go through the BlackBerry Proxy instead of connecting directly to the Internet. This setting should be enabled if your authentication server (for example, Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) server) is not published externally to the internet. If your authentication server is published externally, this setting is optional.
