Problem with accessing Microsoft To Do API using free EntraID

Gabriel Bielewski 0

I am having trouble accessing Microsoft To Do API using my free EntraID, as I am unable to access technical support and keep getting an "authorization problem" error when trying to get a token bearer. I received the following message: "Additional information from the call to get a token: Extension: Microsoft_AAD_UsersAndTenants Resource: adIbizaUX - with this info on homepage". Can someone please help me with this issue?

The error you're encountering when trying to access the Microsoft To Do API using your free EntraID (Azure Active Directory ID) and facing an "authorization problem" suggests a few potential misconfigurations in your Azure AD setup or API permissions. Let's go through some steps to troubleshoot and resolve this issue:

Troubleshooting Steps

1. Azure Active Directory Configuration

Ensure that your Azure AD application registration is correctly set up.

Verify that the Application ID, Tenant ID, and Redirect URIs are correctly configured in your application.

2. API Permissions

In the Azure portal, check the API permissions for your application.

Ensure that you have added the required permissions for Microsoft To Do API.

Microsoft To Do API requires specific permissions like Tasks.Read, Tasks.ReadWrite, etc.

After adding permissions, make sure to grant admin consent if required.

3. Acquiring Token Bearer

When acquiring the token bearer, ensure that the scope is correctly specified.

The scope should typically be in the format "https://graph.microsoft.com/.default".

Use the correct endpoint for token requests. For Microsoft Graph, the endpoint is usually https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant}/oauth2/v2.0/token.

4. Client Secret or Certificate

If your application uses a client secret or certificate for authentication, verify that it's correctly set up in Azure AD and in your application code.

The client secret should be securely stored and not expired.

5. Token Request Details

Examine the details in your token request, including headers, body, and the endpoint.

Ensure that the client_id, scope, grant_type, and client_secret (if used) are correctly included in the request.

6. Error Message Analysis

The error message you received seems to be related to a specific internal extension or resource in Azure. This might indicate an issue with the Azure service or a misconfiguration.

If possible, provide more details about the error message or any logs that can help in diagnosing the issue further.

7. Testing with Graph Explorer

As a preliminary test, try accessing the Microsoft To Do API using the Microsoft Graph Explorer.

This can help confirm if the issue is with your application setup or with the API permissions.

8. Consult Documentation

Review the Microsoft Graph API documentation and Azure AD documentation for any missing steps or configurations.

9. Community Support

Since you mentioned you are unable to access technical support, consider seeking help from community forums like Stack Overflow or Microsoft Q&A. Be sure to share detailed error messages and configurations (without disclosing sensitive information).

Next Steps

If the above steps do not resolve your issue, consider providing more detailed information about your setup and the exact steps you are taking to acquire the token bearer.

Double-check all configurations and permissions, as the issue often lies in a small detail that is easy to overlook.
