I am using the msal acquire_token_interactive method to login the user. I have User.Read and Presence.Read defined as scopes, both in the API permissions tab and in the acquire_token_interactive call.
However, when trying to login it displays "Consent on behalf of your organization", but the access shall only be for the individual user.

    @Dominik ,

    Issue:

    You were using the msal acquire_token_interactive method to login the user. You had User.Read and Presence.Read defined as scopes, both in the API permissions tab and in the acquire_token_interactive call.

    However, when trying to login the prompt displayed "Consent on behalf of your organization" only for the individual user. It was not displayed consistently for all users.

    Solution:

    The requested permissions in the prompt are specific to the currently signed in user and their existing permissions. The "consent on behalf of your organization" checkbox only appears for admin users, since selecting the checkbox grants access to the specified resources for all users in the organization.
