    https://login.microsoftonline.com/<TenantID>/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&prompt=login&redirect_uri=https://www.google.com/&client_id=<ClientID>

    Follow on screen authentication process and once authentication is complete you will get response back on the browser address bar.

    The response will look like this:

    https://www.google.com/?code=\<AuthCode>&session_state=\<SessionState>

    AuthCode is set of alphanumeric character of length ~750 chars. Copy the auth code for future use.

16. Create postman collection as below:
    

URL: `https://login.microsoftonline.com/<TenantID>/oauth2/token`

client_id: <Client ID>

grant_type: authorization_code

code: <Auth code copied in above step>

redirect_uri: https://www.google.com/

resource: https://servicebus.azure.net

    Server Url: https://<resource_name>.servicebus.windows.net

Refresh Url: https://login.microsoftonline.com/<TenantID>/oauth2/token

Note: Please do not use authorization_code as value for the field grant_type in connection parameter. Default value for the grant_type is refresh_token. You can either leave the field blank to use the default value or provide the appropriate value based on backend documentation.

Once the connection is created, we can test an operation by creating a workflow or flow service.
