The API permissions option is inside an app registration in Microsoft Entra ID, not on the top-level Azure menu.

Steps:

Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center.
Go to Entra ID > App registrations.
Select the application.
In the left pane, under Manage, select API permissions.
Select Add a permission.
Choose the API source, for example:
- Microsoft Graph
- My APIs
- APIs my organization uses
Select either:
- Delegated permissions for apps acting as the signed-in user
- Application permissions for service or daemon apps acting as themselves
Select the required permissions, then choose Add permissions.
If needed, select Grant admin consent for {your tenant}.

Important details:

The Grant admin consent button is disabled if no permissions are configured or if the signed-in account is not an admin.
A Cloud Application Administrator can add permissions to an app registration.
A user with at least Privileged Role Administrator can both add permissions and grant them.

Hi,

You may use link below to navigate to App registrations in Azure portal. Once there, please click on your App and then on left menu click Manage -- API permissions.
