SharePoint App-Only Authentication Support
Hi Team,
I have been hearing that the SharePoint App Only principals created through _layouts/15/appregnew.aspx and managed in /appinv.aspx will potentially be retired for SPO with changes potentially happening from next year (2024).
Can anyone verify this and let us know what changes and support for this approach will be expected.
I realize that there is a better permission model to follow, just making sure that we are aware of deadlines etc. for our apps and processes.
Thanks.
- Fully understand, So Microsoft is moving toward using Graph for everything and controlling the permission from azure. Giving more flexibility and easier to manage than the old app prinaceble:

My recommendation is to start migrating as much as possible but they've not added any EOL date as of yet.
- Using app registration within Azure. There you can select what permission you need and ot what selected site etc.

Yes understand and use this approach regularly. Just keen to understand the when the SharePoint App model approach retires due to some old solutions.
