When I tried to configure a a URL into the ALLOWED EXTERNAL REDIRECT URLS text box, as shown in Figure 1, I received the following error.
Failed to save Auth Settings for authenticated App:
{"Code":"Conflict","Message":"Cannot update the site ‘******’

The initial thought was that because the domain I was trying to add was a multi-subdomain format like: public.admin.contoso.com that for some reason wasn’t liking that.
What I figured out, was that it needs to have HTTP/HTTPS included with the hostname. I binged for some answer and found nothing so I then had to troubleshoot it myself and this is what I found. So maybe by writing this one it will save them some minutes.
