PART #3:-
This is a Single Stage Pipeline - App_Registration_Setup_Configure (with 7 Pipeline Tasks):-
PIPELINE TASK #1:-
Validate Resource Group and Key Vault. If either one of the Azure Resource is not Available, Pipeline will fail.
Validate App Registration. If available with same name, Pipeline will fail else App Registration will be created successfully. The generated secret will be stored in the Keyvault.

PIPELINE TASK #3:-
Token Configuration: Optional Claims
For more details, please refer the MS Documentation link
5. App Registration Secret stored successfully in Key Vault.
6. App Registration Token Configuration (Optional Claims and Group Claims) was setup successfully.
7. App Registration API Permissions set correctly.
Note:- Global Administrator PIM role is required to Grant Admin Consent to the MS Graph API permissions added. After Pipeline is executed, Cloud Administrator needs to elevate to Global Administrator PIM role to grant admin consent.
8. Below is how it looks after granting admin consent.
9. App Registration App Roles created successfully.
