2 min read.This article describes how to fix the “AADSTS500113: no-reply address is registered for the application” error. You typically get this error, when your app is trying to authenticate your users against Azure Active Directory.
I have been posting about different versions of the Azure Active Directory authentication errors (different errors with AADSTS -codes) a lot – I’ll need to find a better way to categorize them in the future. But, for now, onto the issue!
Problem
Another day, another app, another address-related authentication issue replied in Azure AD. This one (for once) should be simple.
When you’re loading your app, that’s authenticating against Azure AD, most likely in a web browser or another online client, you’ll be redirected to a Microsoft Online login page with the following error:
AADSTS500113: no reply address is registered for the application
This error code is kinda peculiar. It’s not listed on Microsoft’s long list of AADSTS-error codes… Perhaps, because it seems to be a variant of AADSTS50011, which itself has a number of different error messages. These error messages describe different issues with reply URLs – just like this particular error code. I don’t know why, but apparently, Microsoft thought that the misconfiguration (not to have reply URLs at all!) deserves a custom error code! It basically looks like “error code AADSTS50011, variant 3” – this just makes me wonder what happened to variants 0, 1, and 2…
Okay, but on to the resolution of the issue. What to do?
The solution to error AADSTS500113
Okay, so you need to add a reply URL. Easy? It should be! Let’s see:
How to verify that your reply URL is included in the Redirect URIs of your app:
Time needed: 5 minutes.
- Browse to https://aad.portal.azure.com
- Log in using your Office 365 / Cloud App Administrator account
- Navigate to “App registrations”
- Find your app under “Owned applications” or “All applications”
- Select “Manage” -> “Authentication”
- Check the “Redirect URIs” -section. Verify, that the URL you’re accessing the app from really is listed there!
App Registrations under Azure Active Directory.
When accessing the Authentication settings under your app registration, you should add the URLs you expect your app to be called from – like in the screenshot below:
“Redirect URIs” -section in Azure Active Directory’s app registration view.

Hope it helps!
