# AADSTS500011 - Resource Principal Not Found
15+
16+
This article describes a problem in which users experiences an "AADSTS500011" error when they try to sign in to Microsoft Entra ID.
17+
18+
## Symptoms
19+
20+
When users try to sign in to an application that uses Microsoft Entra ID authentication, they receive the following error message:
21+
22+
> `AADSTS500011 - The resource principal named [resource URL] was not found in the tenant named [tenant ID]`
23+
24+
## Cause
25+
26+
This issue occurs if the resource principal (the application or service) is not found in the tenant. This issue occurs if:
27+
28+
- The resource application isn't provisioned by the administrator in the tenant.
29+
- The resource application isn't consented to by any user in the tenant.
30+
- The resource URL is not configured correctly.
31+
- The tenant ID is not correct.
32+
33+
## Resolution
34+
35+
To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
36+
37+
1. **Verify resource application provisioning**:
38+
39+
- Make sure that the application (resource principal) is registered correctly in your Microsoft Entra ID tenant.
40+
- Go to the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com), and navigate to Microsoft Entra ID > Enterprise applications.
41+
- Check whether the application is listed and correctly configured.
42+
43+
1. **Consent to application**:
44+
- Make sure that the resource application has been consented to by an administrator or a user in the tenant.
45+
- Go to the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com), and navigate to Microsoft Entra > Enterprise applications.
46+
- Find the application, and make sure that it has the necessary permissions and consent.
47+
48+
1. **Check resource URL**:
49+
- Verify that the resource URL that appears in the error message matches the resource application that you provisioned in your tenant ID.
50+
- Make sure that the authentication request is sent by using the correct resource URL.
51+
52+
1. **Check tenant ID**:
53+
- Verify that the tenant ID that appears in the error message is the same as your tenant ID.
54+
- Make sure that the authentication request is sent to the correct Microsoft Entra ID tenant.
55+
56+
