Hello @mkovacs , thank you for reaching out. Microsoft Graph API is an Azure AD Protected resource, which means that in order to make a call to Microsoft Graph API, you would first need to grab an Access-Token from Azure AD. Once Azure AD provides you with a token you can submit that access-token to Microsoft Graph Endpoint and fetch the required details.
You can use your Personal Microsoft Accounts too to access Microsoft Graph api, but then you need to create an App Registration in Azure AD for your Logic Apps that would call the Graph APIs. Anything that needs to access Microsoft Graph data using the API needs to have permissions. To grant permissions, you can register an app in Azure AD.
The general auth flow looks something like:
- User access the App using browser hits on the signIn button ----> The app redirects the user to AAD and AAD provides the popup window to enter the creds
- After the user enters the Microsoft Personal Account emailId and Password, AAD authenticates this user
- After AAD authenticates this user and gives back an Id_token in return to the App for the app to know that the user is authenticated successfully.
- Once the user is back to the app after authentication, the user performs some other operation that needs to call a Microsoft Graph API, and that creates a request for AAD. This request holds the clientID, and client Secret of the app's app registration that was done in AAD and also packs the list of permissions to access the Graph API in it.
- Once this request reaches AAD, AAD issues an Access_token to access the Graph APIs based on the details mentioned in the request.
- Later this access_token is used by the Application to make the final Graph API call.
The steps remain same for logic app also, but the only point there is that Logic Apps would only use the ClientID and ClientSecret (no user auth would be involved here), to create a request for Azure AD and fetch a token from it. This type of OAuth flow is termed as client_credentials flow.
