Authentication Failure for IMAP and POP3 using Client Credential flow for OAuth2.0 | Java
- Jul 29, 2022
Hi. I had the same problem, but I think I made some progress.
I read documentation few times, tried few times from the start with same error. I even have tried using client and object ids instead of email as username, in lack of better ideas.
So this is where I think I have made mistake previous times.When you are at the part that you need to register service principal, you need to execute
New-ServicePrincipal -AppId <APPLICATION_ID> -ServiceId <OBJECT_ID> [-Organization <ORGANIZATION_ID>]
here I put enterprise application object id as ServiceId argument. And that is ok.
But on
Add-MailboxPermission -Identity "email address removed for privacy reasons" -User <SERVICE_PRINCIPAL_ID> -AccessRights FullAccess
I have put my registered application object id as User argument. I also tried setting object id of enterprise application, but it did not have success.
I also tried New-ServicePrincipal but with registered app object id as service id, but it gave me the same result.
When I executed
Get-ServicePrincipal -Organization <ORGANIZATION_ID> | fl
I did not pay attention to ServiceId property, even with documentation specifying it and saying it will be different.
Now I cleared everything and started fresh.
I executed all the steps again, but on the step when I need to add mail permission, I list service principals, and then use `ServiceId` value from the output, as argument for user.
With that, I was able to authorise.
Unfortunately, now I receive `C3 BAD User is authenticated but not connected.` when I try to list inbox. But it is step forward.
I am not sure if you made the same error as me, but maybe it will help you in some way.
I will post info, when I find fix for the new error if somebody comes across same issue.
I had exactly the same problem ; altought i followed the documentation of microsoft.
I have finaly solved it :
when i get request the oauth token, we should put "https://outlook.office365.com/.default" in the scope parameter
but, since it is an uri, it should be encoded (in c# i use UrlEncode)
after that, i was able to use the token in my sasl auth message and then i was authenticated (and got the respons "+OK User successfully authenticated.")

Thanks for pointing the UrlEncode trick in C# while assigning the scope param
