    Hi @StevenGrass-9465

    To create a new app password for an app or device, take the following steps. You can repeat these steps to create an app password for as many apps or devices as you need.

    1. Go to the Security basics page (https://account.microsoft.com/security?refd=support.microsoft.com) and sign in to your Microsoft account.
    2. Select More security options.
    3. Under App passwords, select Create a new app password. A new app password is generated and appears on your screen.
    4. Enter this app password where you would enter your normal Microsoft account password in the application.
