Python REST API Sharepoint. Error - "'error': 'invalid_request', 'error_description': "AADSTS900023: Specified tenant identifier 'tenant_id' is neither a valid DNS name, nor a valid external domain."

Question

This is the code which I tried, I am hiding the critical info with 'xxx'

client_id = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'

client_secret = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'

tenant = 'xxx'

tenant_id = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'

client_id = client_id + '@' + tenant_id

data = { 'grant_type':'client_credentials', 'resource': "00000003-0000-0ff1-ce00-000000000000/" + tenant + "xxx.sharepoint.com@" + tenant_id, 'client_id': client_id, 'client_secret': client_secret,}

headers = { 'Content-Type':'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' }

url = "https://accounts.accesscontrol.windows.net/tenant_id/tokens/OAuth/2" r = requests.post(url, data=data, headers=headers) json_data = json.loads(r.text) print(json_data)

Can anyone guide me on this. This is the first time I am doing this. Have no clue how to debug it and what is causing this error.

This is the error message.

Dear Jenifa Thomas,

Good day! Thank you for your reply to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.

Its seems like this issue related to developer side, you may consider to visit ourcommunity:SharePoint Developmentand this is the most efficient way to report such issue

At the same time, from the error, it looks like the "tenant_id" you entered is incorrect. You can get the correct tenant_ ID from Azure AD (Microsoft - Microsoft Entra admin center)

Appreciate your understanding.

Have a good day!

Best regards,
