What specific syntax or configuration changes must be made in order to resolve the error below in which terraform is failing to create an instance of azuread_application?

THE CODE:

The terraform code that is triggering the error when terraform apply is run is as follows:

variable "tenantId" { }
variable "clientId" { }
variable "clientSecret" { }
variable "instanceName" { }

terraform {
  required_providers {
    azuread = {
      source  = "hashicorp/azuread"
      version = "2.5.0"
    }
  }
}

provider "azuread" {
  tenant_id       = var.tenantId
  client_id       = var.clientId
  client_secret   = var.clientSecret
}

resource "azuread_application" "appRegistration" {
  display_name = var.instanceName
  app_role {
    allowed_member_types = ["User", "Application"]
    description          = "Admins can manage roles and perform all task actions"
    display_name         = "Admin"
    enabled              = true
    id                   = "1b19509b-32b1-4e9f-b71d-4992aa991967"
    value                = "admin"
  }
}

THE ERROR:

The error and log output that result from running the above code with terraform apply are:
