Hello. Azure team,
I want to access AzureAD without a browser in Python.
So I have tried device code flow using the 'msal' library but I got 400 errors when it called the 'acqurie_token_by_device_flow' function.
(ref: https://github.com/Azure-Samples/ms-identity-python-devicecodeflow)
I have checked the procedure in the 'acquire_token_by_device_flow' function. It was iterated in the token API and showed error code 70016.
How can I solve this issue? Please advise me.
I really appreciate any help you can provide.

Hi @Chris Kim
Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A
You can try using the steps from the documentation below. Let me know if that works for you.
Thanks,
Fabio
Thank you for your answer :)
If you don't mind, Can I ask you one more thing?
I couldn't figure out the parameter's values, authority and resource.
What kind of value should I put it there? Could you give me a hint for that?
Thanks,
Chris
Hi Chris.
No problem, I'm glad I could help.
Authority is the endpoint that you are reaching out to get the tokens, which usually is "https://login.microsoftonline.com/Enter_the_Tenant_Name_Here"
The resource is the URL of the resource application you are requesting the token to access. Bringing to Microsoft world it could be like https://graph.microsoft.com/.default or https://management.azure.com.
Hope it helps.
Fabio
