Hi @龙昊 王,

SharePoint Server is different with SharePoint Online, there is no tenant id for a SharePoint Server site. We are unable to get access token as SharePoint Online.

As a workaround, we could use NTLM Authothorization to access SharePoint Rest api. You could refer to the steps in following issue similar with yours
