Hello all,

We have integrated SSO with Azure Active Directory but are not able to register/login users.

We are following steps from the following documentation:  
[https://edx.readthedocs.io/projects/edx-installing-configuring-and-running/en/latest/configuration/tpa/tpa\_integrate\_open/tpa\_oauth.html#register-the-open-edx-instance-with-azure-active-directory](https://edx.readthedocs.io/projects/edx-installing-configuring-and-running/en/latest/configuration/tpa/tpa_integrate_open/tpa_oauth.html#register-the-open-edx-instance-with-azure-active-directory)

Getting following error in the LMS logs while the user performs register/login:

```auto

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

    raise AuthForbidden(args[0])
social_core.exceptions.AuthForbidden: Your credentials aren't allowed

```

Able to see the error 'cause have set `SOCIAL_AUTH_RAISE_EXCEPTIONS` to `True` [here](https://github.com/edx/edx-platform/blob/open-release/koa.master/common/djangoapps/third_party_auth/settings.py#L82).

Open edX Release: `open-release/koa.master`

Seeking help on this.

Thanks!
