App Authentication with new SharePoint Tenants (from August 2020)
New SharePoint tenants, provisioned during or after August 2020, are automatically created with the add-in authentication model used by the Nitro Sign add-in disabled. While we work on updating the authentication model for the Nitro Sign add-in, you can disable the tenant property “DisableCustomAppAuthentication“ which will allow you to use the Nitro Sign for SharePoint add-in with the current authentication model. You will need to be a SharePoint administrator to do this, and may need to update to the latest SharePoint admin PowerShell.
You can refer to the Microsoft documentation for more information.
