It will authenticate against the Azure Active Directory with the "e674da86-7ee5-40a7-b777-1111111111111" guid. It will use the ClientId "dea8d7a9-1602-4429-b138-111111111111" and ClientSecret "Vja/VmdxaLOPR+alkjfsadffelkjlfw234522" go get access to the environment. It will use the default value "UTC" Time Zone for converting the different time and dates. It will use the default start time which is NOW. It will use the default end time which is 60 minutes.
