Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA)

Overview

  • Runs: as a user.
  • Scenario: unattended automation.
  • Delegated permissions.
Note: This authentication type does not work when multi-factor authentication (MFA) is enabled. If your application requires MFA, you can run attended automation using the Interactive Token authentication type or unattended automation using Application ID and Secret and Application ID and Certificate. Application ID and Secret and Application ID and Certificate authentication types are appropriate for unattended automation and work regardless of whether the MFA is enabled or disabled.

Details

  • The Integrated Windows Authentication authentication type can be used for unattended automation. This option can apply to Windows hosted applications running on computers joined to a Windows domain or Azure Active Directory. IWA works only for federated users (Active Directory Federation Services or Web Account Manager) and if your registered Azure application is configured to support IWA. Doesn't work for multi-factor authentication (MFA). See details here: IWA on GitHub.
  • When registering your application, you must select an application type. For IWA authentication type, you must use a mobile/desktop application (which uses OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow).
  • You should only select this option if your registered application is configured to support Integrated Windows Authentication.
  • If you select this authentication type in Microsoft 365 Scope, leave the Username and Password fields empty. The Tenant field is optional.
