4. Troubleshooting
4.1. Some options are greyed out in the Azure portal
This usually means that your account does not have the required permissions to access or modify these settings.
❇️ How to resolve:
Contact the person responsible for Microsoft Entra ID in your organization and ask them to either:
- Grant you the required permissions, or
- Make the necessary changes on your behalf
4.2. Users are asked to request permissions when signing in
On app.ronspotflexwork.com, if users are prompted to request permissions when signing in to Microsoft, admin consent may not have been granted during the setup.
This can happen if the account used in Step 2.7 did not have the required administrator permissions, meaning that Step 2.8 could not be completed successfully.
❇️ How to resolve:
- In the Microsoft Entra admin center, go to
Enterprise applications. - Select
Ronspot for Microsoft Entra ID - Go to
Permissions - Click
Grant admin consent for Ronspot Ltd - Complete the Microsoft confirmation process.
Once admin consent has been granted, you should see two permissions under the Admin consent tab and four permissions under the User consent tab.
Users should then be able to sign in to Ronspot without being asked to request permissions.

4.3. We'd like to map a Microsoft property to a Ronspot property
If you want to automatically assign new users who register with Ronspot to specific groups based on their Microsoft properties, you can configure property mapping.
This allows users to automatically inherit the appropriate Ronspot properties based on information from Microsoft Entra ID.
