I need to write an app that will read messages in several shared mailboxes.
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/myaccount#mydomain.com/messages
This request is sent with the authorization token.
Works perfectly for me. The shared mailbox belongs to me as well. However:
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/sharedmailbox#mydomain.com/messages
Always return 403 Unauthorized. Is it even possible? If not, what are the alternatives?

Unable to retrieve ANY data when I try to fetch simple content from Archer via REST API calls through Postman or Mule.
1. Is URL below correct? What am I missing?
2. How to get Reports via Archer REST API i.e what API resource to use.
Have seen the Archer REST documentation but do not find it clear enough.
Have tried GET & POST, with Authorization configured, through Postman:
https://hostname/platformapi/core/security/login https://hostname/platformapi/core/content/123
https://hostname/RsaArcher/platformapi/core/content/123
I get 'Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials.' error although I am told to have access.
Please suggest proper API call/path to be used and if any specific settings is to be made to retrieve data?
Archer version: 6.5
Note: Through POSTMAN and Mule, I have successfully consumed REST API from other secured applications. Struggling with Archer.
Thank you.
The documentation for Archer REST API was mentioned in a previous answer and seems to require a login into their site: https://stackoverflow.com/a/38511131/721855
This KB article shows examples on how to use the API from Powershell: https://community.rsa.com/docs/DOC-45643. It should be easy to adapt to Postman, Mule or whatever other language/tools.
I recently had the same issue. The company had anonymous authentication disabled on the api directory. The user account running postman must have access to the api directory. If you are still getting a 401, see if you anonymous access can be enabled to rule out other non-access related issues. If you are able to generate a security token when calling core/security/login when anonymous authentication is enabled, then you know the issue is that your account did not have access to the api directory. If you are not able to make the request successfully with anonymous authentication enabled, then you know the issue is likely with the way you've structured your REST call. Hope this helps!
Authentication to any Archer API is two step process. First you have to call an authentication resource or method. That will return a session token. You must then add that token to the request headers for subsequent requests. Your header would look something like this:
Authorization: Archer session-id=439C730FF83F68EFDC017ED705D9908E
Without this header, you'll get a 401 for any request other than an authentication request.
I'm working on an iOS application and what I'd like to do is have the app ping one universal Gmail account to check for the most recent email.
I went through the guide from Google at https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/quickstart/ios?ver=swift, but the result did not work. After some googling, it appears that some functionality may have been changed, but they haven't updated their documentation yet.
Is there a way to send credentials via https to Gmail and get email messages back? I have an OAuth key via the Gmail API manager, but when I pass it as "access_token", the response says "Login Required".
AFAIK, an error response "Login Required" can be encountered if you try to list the buckets for a project that do not provide an authorization header.
If we check Users.messages: get, it's noted that it requires authorization.
For this, you may want to check Authorizing Your App with Gmail wherein you will find these basic authorization pattern:
During development, register the application in the Google API Console.
When the app launches, request that the user grant access to data in their Google account.
If the user consents, your application requests and receives credentials to access the Gmail API.
Refresh the credentials (if necessary).
Furthermore, if your application needs to access Google APIs on behalf of the user, you should use server-side flow. Please see Implementing Server-Side Authorization for more information.
Sometime back I was involved in writing a sample application to access email from gmail but using C++ on windows. The code is at https://github.com/Panchatcharam/simple_gmail_api. I was able to successfully get emails.
I'm aware that access is returned as X-Access-Level header in response to API requests. But I noticed read-write is returned for both Read and Write and Read, Write and Direct Messages. So, how do I know if the app has access to Direct Messages as well?
Testing with the Apigee Twitter console I get x-access-level:
read-write-directmessages as a response header. The access token granted for the account you are testing likely doesn't have DM access granted. Try revoking the access token and authorizing it again.
I am developing a rather simple application that retrieves files from SharePoint using the REST Office 365 API. This is a batch job running in the background with no user interface so the following simple 2-step flow is what I'm doing:
(1) Requesting an Access Token from Azure AD (supplying client ID, client secret, resource, and grant_type=client_credentials)
(2) Invoke the SharePoint API (https://{base url}/_api/v1.0/Files) using the "Authorization: Bearer " as a request header .
That process seems pretty straightforward and sounds simple but I keep getting the following error:
401 Unauthorized
x-ms-diagnostics: 3001000;reason="There has been an error authenticating the request.";category="invalid_client"
Any idea what the problem is and how this can be resolved ? I have been stuck on this for days now. I would REALLY appreciate somebody's help with this. Thanks.
SharePoint Online doesn't yet support clients accessing it using app-only tokens (resulting from client credential OAuth2 flow). It only supports delegated token aka user+app tokens (resulting from authorization code OAuth2 flow).
So, if you wish to write a client application (web app or native client app) that accesses SharePoint online - it can only be on behalf of a user, and it must involve interactive authentication of the user - after the user authenticates - they will be shown a consent page where they need to consent to your application accessing the O365 API on their behalf.
Only Mail/Calendar/Contacts APIs (Exchange Online) support clients accessing them using app-only tokens - and they have turned on this support very recently. Read about client credential flow tokens with Exchange Online APIs here: http://blogs.technet.com/b/ad/archive/2015/02/04/using-azure-ad-to-build-daemon-applications-that-call-office-365-apis.aspx, http://blogs.msdn.com/b/exchangedev/archive/2015/01/22/building-demon-or-service-apps-with-office-365-mail-calendar-and-contacts-apis-oauth2-client-credential-flow.aspx
Hope this helps.
ps: OAuth2 client credential flow doesn't issue a refresh token
You will need an access token for the specific resource you are trying to access - in this case your sharepoint site for the Office365 REST Apis.
A good read on this can be found here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn645538.aspx
Assuming your {base_url} is a sharepoint site, i.e., 'https://[site_name]-my.sharepoint.com
You can either:
(1) Initially get the access and refresh tokens using your client credentials plus a resource = {base url}
or
(2) Once you have the access and refresh token from the Azure AD resource, make a refresh_token call using:
client_id
client_secret
grant_type = 'refresh_token'
resource = {base_url}
refresh_token = [refresh token received from Azure AD
generate token response]
In this case you'll have 2 access tokens:
one that can be used for Azure AD requests
one that can be used for Office365 REST Api requests.
We could not/have not found a way to have a single access token be 'valid' for more than 1 resource.
Hope this helps!
I'm trying to make a call to the new Office 365 File REST APIs. (As explained here).
I'm using Postman rest client to send the request.
I have registered my application in Azure AD and given it full permissions to 'Office 365 SharePoint Online'.
I can successfully get an authorization token using the clientId generated in Azure AD.
However when I attempt to list files, using the access token I get an error.
------------------
RESOURCE HTTP GET:
------------------
URL: https://<OUR_DOMAIN>-my.sharepoint.com/personal/<user_domain>/_api/Files
HEADER: Authorization: Bearer <access token>
Response:
3001000;reason="There has been an error authenticating the request.";category="invalid_client"
What can cause this issue?
Not sure what steps you've tried to use to resolve this, so it's hard to help you out here. I've just finished writing up more detailed instructions on the steps to register an app to call OneDrive for Business. It's long and complicated right now, but we're working to make things better in the future.
You can check out the details of how to do auth here: https://dev.onedrive.com/auth/aad_oauth.htm
Make sure you aren't asking for too many permissions, since that will require your app to be authenticated by an admin instead of the end user. For most apps, you can just use the "My files" permission scopes which can be accepted by the user of your app directly.
If you post more information about what calls you're making, responses, and app configuration in AAD I might be able to help more.
You may have been using different resources.
Check whether the resource which you have used for getting access token is same as which you are requesting for getting files.
for example :
If the resource which you have mentioned while requesting access token be :: "https://tenant-my.sharepoint.com/"
Then you need to make request on the same resource for accessing files :: "https://tenant-my.sharepoint.com/_api/v2.0/drive/root/children"
The above request give list of root children.
tenant --> domain name which was registered to your organisation.
