I am implementing Oauth 2 authentication for Office 365 account in a java based server side application. After reading the documentation, I have done the following things:

  • I have office 365 subscription.
  • I have created an app in Azure Actve directory, that is necessary to authenticate web app using office 365 account.
  • I have client ID and secret. I have also given all permission to the Azure app.
  • I am requesting authorization code using the Url:

https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/authorize?client_id={client_id}&response_type=code&redirect_uri={redirect url}&response_mode=query

As a response of this, I am getting authorization code as expected:

http://localhost:8080?code={authorication code}&session_state=259479e4-84aa-42ea-91e9-9e919cc99587

Now I need to get token along with the user name (user ID from which the user in logged in), as I need the user name for further processing. For this, I am using the method described here:

https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/active-directory-protocols-oauth-code/

That is using a POST request like this:

POST /{tenant}/oauth2/token HTTP/1.1
Host: https://login.microsoftonline.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
grant_type=authorization_code
&client_id=2d4d11a2-f814-46a7-890a-274a72a7309e
&code=AwABAAAAvPM1KaPlrEqdFSBzjqfTGBCmLdgfSTLEMPGYuNHSUYBrqqf_ZT_p5uEAEJJ_nZ3UmphWygRNy2C3jJ239gV_DBnZ2syeg95Ki-374WHUP-i3yIhv5i-7KU2CEoPXwURQp6IVYMw-DjAOzn7C3JCu5wpngXmbZKtJdWmiBzHpcO2aICJPu1KvJrDLDP20chJBXzVYJtkfjviLNNW7l7Y3ydcHDsBRKZc3GuMQanmcghXPyoDg41g8XbwPudVh7uCmUponBQpIhbuffFP_tbV8SNzsPoFz9CLpBCZagJVXeqWoYMPe2dSsPiLO9Alf_YIe5zpi-zY4C3aLw5g9at35eZTfNd0gBRpR5ojkMIcZZ6IgAA
&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2Fmyapp%2F
&resource=https%3A%2F%2Fservice.contoso.com%2F
&client_secret=p@ssw0rd

Now the problem is that, when ever I send this post request, I always get error with error code some times 400 or 402 etc. I also user POST man in chrome to check the response of the call. It always return error like that:

{
  "error": "invalid_grant",
  "error_description": "AADSTS65001: The user or administrator has not consented to use the application with ID. Send an interactive authorization request for this user and resource.\r\nTrace ID: b834315e-ccb3-4533-b7c9-4af7b34054b9\r\nCorrelation ID: 784f18da-5479-4b69-b939-0067abfcc460\r\nTimestamp: 2016-08-02 07:28:22Z",
  "error_codes": [
    65001
  ],
  "timestamp": "2016-08-02 07:28:22Z",
  "trace_id": "b834315e-ccb3-4533-b7c9-4af7b34054b9",
  "correlation_id": "784f18da-5479-4b69-b939-0067abfcc460"
}

(Note: I have registered all the apps using administrator login) I have tried a lot to find out whats is going wrong here. I have added multiple apps in Azure Active directory but I am always getting similar response.

I request professionals to help me. . . ! Actually I want to allow user to click on a button in office 365 web add-in and use oauth2 authentication to login to our system. It will be great in somebody suggest me some good tutorial to successfully implement this.

If you were requesting the access token for the Office 365, the resource parameter in the send request should be https%3A%2F%2Foutlook.office.com.

And also you can use the Microsoft Graph as Philip suggested. You can refer here about how to choose the endpoint.

Receiving the error codes "interaction_required" or "invalid_grant" error codes means there is an issue with the "Refresh token" and it advised to:

  • Discard current refresh token
  • Request new authorization code
