Microsoft Entra application used an unsupported response type

AADSTS70005: UnsupportedResponseType

Microsoft Entra rejected the authorization request because the app asked for a response type that isn't enabled or supported for the app configuration.

AADSTS70005authentication

Observed message

AADSTS70005: UnsupportedResponseType

Why it happens

  • The app requested a response type that is not enabled for the registration.
  • The response type does not match the scopes or flow the app is using.
  • The authorization request contains unsupported or misconfigured response parameters.

How to fix it

  1. Review the response_type value in the authorization request.
  2. Enable the required auth settings only if that flow is intended.
  3. Prefer a modern supported flow if the current response type is legacy or unnecessary.
