Error access Outlook Tasks from Flow
Hi Alexandru Tofan,
This setting is indeed turned off in our tenant because we do not want our users to give consent to 3rd party apps. However it is strange this setting is only needed for Outlook Tasks, right?
I cannot test it, but if correct it seems like a design flaw or bug to me...
Hi JoostKoopmans1,
The Outlook Tasks connector uses a 3rd party app and requires consent. The name of the application is OutlookTasksConnector-PowerApps and Flow and the application ID is 99da6bf4-4525-4bfa-b39f-b6a35789c240. Make sure permission is granted to this app in AAD before attempting to use the connector. It is not mandatory to turn ON the “Users can consent to apps accessing company data on their behalf” option if permission has been granted to the app.

I'm having trouble locating the app in AAD and our users are getting the error.
Any help figuring out how to search for it?

I have had a similar issue with the same connector. All that needs to be done is for the Global Admin to log in to flow and select the exact same connector, it would prompt the Global Admin to consent, once the Global Admin has consented on behalf of the organisation, all users will be able to create the connector Successfully.

Alexandru Tofan, thanks but this is very weird, right? We do not know anything about this 3rd party app and therefore we will not add this app but will wait until Microsoft get its act together, so to say...

Hi Joost, I want to make sure we are talking about the same app. Please take a look at the screenshot I attached.

I guess it is, however there is no notice about a 3rd party, the creator is Microsoft and the backend is Microsoft as well...
