| a legitimate application that has been deleted from the tenant while a client continues to authenticate against its former client id via ropc can generate error code 700016. a misconfigured legacy client submitting an incorrect client id is also possible. in both cases the client id is typically stable and low-volume, unlike the many distinct or randomized identifiers seen in spoofing. verify the application identifier, the source infrastructure, and whether the same principal is targeted by many different unresolved client ids. | |
