Expired Certificate in Azure App for Microsoft 365 Tenant in Netwrix Auditor

Question​

A certificate for a Microsoft 365 (Office 365) tenant monitored by Netwrix Auditor is expiring shortly. Should you reissue the certificate manually?

Answer​

No. Netwrix Auditor will reissue the certificate automatically as long as the application secret is valid. Once the certificate expires, Netwrix Auditor will use the valid application secret to reissue it. If your application secret has expired, a certificate won't be issued.

NOTE: If you'd like to force the certificate reissue, you can delete the certificate from the corresponding Entra ID (Azure AD) app.
