Consent to the app

When you use the app for the first time or the required permissions of the app have changed a dialog will be shown where you can see all delegated permissions that the app requires to work.

You have to grant these permissions in order to get the app working.

You are able to remove these permissions at any time!

If your current user is an administrator you will see the additional checkbox "Consent on behalf of your organisation".

Checking this will consent to the app for every user that is part of your organisation. In this case the individual users don't have to grant the permissions on their own.
