Hi Guys,
I have been looking for a solution to send automated mail using smtpclient - 'smtp.office365.com'.
We need to send mail without any user interaction or any admin consent. Is it even possible? (Note: needed authentication for Hybrid scenario - modern authentication) Please let me know if I need to provide any additional details
Thank you in advance

2024-10-16T11:44:13.42+00:00 Thank you for your response Andy David. Are there any other API which will not require consent and any user interaction (can be automated for sending mail)? If there aren't any please give me a reply.

If so, does this KB article help?
It's an example of sending emails using the .NET SMTPClient with a outbound SMTP service called outMail which also works as a send connector inside O365.

2024-10-16T10:04:12.7133333+00:00 Thank you for your response Ian. But the answer you have provided is for basic authentication. I require a solution for modern authentication. I will edit my question above so that it becomes clear of the requirements.
