Answer 1

Actually the documentation states that the Application API access aren't supported, it has to be a delegated access. Isn't it the issue? It seems you are making a call as an Application in Postman?

I tried in Postman with a password grant type (just for the sake of using delegated access) and it does work for me.

Answer 2

Your Presence.Read.All is not an Application grant but a Delegated grant. You need to set it as an Application grant if you want to use it the way you do.

@Pierre Audonnet - MSFT I need your help with how I make calls using grant_type="password".
Can you share the following screenshot of your call e.g

1. how you get Bearer token postman
2. share your header tab may be hidden your id's of the postman
3. share your authorization of postman

I will be very thankful for that act of kindness.

Answer 4

Ohh! Thanks, @Pierre Audonnet - MSFT your answer worked for me thanks a lot again.

Answer 5

@Amir Sohail Im having the exact same problem as you.

How did you solve it with the answer from @Pierre Audonnet - MSFT ?

Or did you just accept that presence can't be read using azure app but need a manual login?
