Authentication troubleshooting
This page lists possible authentication issues you may encounter when using the Microsoft 365 Activities Package.
Overview
First, make sure you check out the following resources:
- Read the documentation related to the Microsoft 365 Scope activity, which includes information about the available authentication types.
- To learn how to register your custom application in Azure AD and set Graph API permissions, see the setup page.
- The list of Graph API calls from Microsoft 365 activities is available on the Technical References page.
-
To learn about using UiPathStudioO365App for InteractiveToken (i.e.
OAuthApplication=UiPath), see:- UiPathStudioO365App on the Microsoft Azure Marketplace
- Configuring the Azure AD for Outlook 365 Automation.
- See the required API permissions for Use application cards on the Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace Cards - API permissions and scopes page.
Scope to specific mailboxes
Mail.Read represents "Read mail in all
mailboxes" and Mail.ReadWrite means "Read and write mail in all
mailboxes".
It's possible to scope application permissions to specific mailboxes, so the application has access only to the specified mailboxes: Scoping application permissions to specific Exchange Online mailboxes.
Scope to specific sites
Sites.Selected application permission to allow
the application access to just specific SharePoint site collections rather than
all.
client_assertion or client_secretIssue: Authentication with username and password fails. The error message displayed is:
Solution: Make sure your registered application has the Allow public client flows configuration field enabled.
The application isn't configured as a multi-tenant application
Issue: You receive the following error message:
/common endpoint is not supported for such applications created
after 10/15/2018. Use a tenant-specific endpoint or configure the application to be
multi-tenant."
Solutions:
- Set a value for the Tenant parameter.
- Configure the application to be multi-tenant.
The authentication works, but the user can't read emails from a shared mailbox
Issue: When using a shared account on the Microsoft 365 activities, on the user's personal account, one can retrieve mail, but when trying to read emails from a shared account, an Access Denied error appears.
Mail.Read.Shared API permission (delegated) set. This
permission allows the app to read mail a user can access, including their own and
shared mail.
Issue: You receive the following error message:
Solution: Make sure you follow these steps to grant admin consent.
Issue: IntegratedWindowsAuthentication (IWA) worked in UiPath.MicrosoftOffice.365.Activitiesv1.3.1, but doesn't work in UiPath.MicrosoftOffice.365.Activities v1.4.0 and v1.5.0.
Solution: Use UiPath.MicrosoftOffice.365.Activities version >= 1.6.0.
Issue: When using UiPath.MicrosoftOffice.365.Activities v1.4.0 or v1.5.0, the Scope activity fails, even though the mandatory parameters, Application Id and Application Secret, are set correctly.
If the Tenant parameter isn't set, you can get one of the following errors:
- "The token contains no permissions, or permissions can not be understood." (Multitenant)
- "Application with identifier [...] was not found in the directory 'microsoft.com'. This can happen if the application has not been installed by the administrator of the tenant or consented to by any user in the tenant. You may have sent your authentication request to the wrong tenant." (Single Tenant)
Solution: Set a value for the Tenant parameter.
Another option is to upgrade to UiPath.MicrosoftOffice.365.Activities version >= 1.6.0. Starting with v1.6.0, Tenant is a mandatory parameter.
You can make Graph API requests within the Microsoft 365 Scope activity. This is possible when using a ParentScope object in an Invoke Code activity.
See below an example with Studio v2021.10 (Windows-Legacy) and UiPath.MicrosoftOffice.365.Activities v1.11.1:
- Which authentication type should I use in the Microsoft 365 Scope activity
- Authenticating with username and password fails
- Error: The user or administrator hasn't consented to use the application
- IntegratedWindowsAuthentication (IWA) doesn't work in v1.4.0 and v1.5.0
- ApplicationIdAndSecret authentication in v1.4.0 and v1.5.0
- Graph API requests within Microsoft 365 Scope
