Known Issues and Limitations

  1. The connector encodes the request body into base64 encoding, hence it should be used to call backend services which expect the request body in this format. You cannot use this connector to call a backend service that expects the request body in raw binary format.

  2. If you get an error similar to:

  • { "error": { "code": "Forbidden", "message": "" } }
  • { "error": { "code": "Authorization_RequestDenied", "message": "Insufficient privileges to complete the operation." } } then it could be because this connector has a limited set of scopes. If your scenario requires something more advanced, please use the "HTTP" connector or create a custom connector.
  1. The connector is based on multi-tenant application registration. The application cannot tell what tenant the user is from until the user signs into it. Therefore, we only support specifying resources under users' default tenant ('common').

  2. Resources based on ADFS SSO (Active Directory Federation Services for Single Sign-On) are not supported. As a workaround, please use the "HTTP" connector.

  3. When using this connector in a national cloud environment the resource must be their national cloud endpoint equivalent. Attempts to try to connect to public cloud (https://graph.microsoft.com, https://bing.com for example) from most national cloud environments will fail with a pre-authorization error.

  4. The use of cookie authorization request header is not supported in case of on-premises data gateway enabled connection.

  5. The asynchronous pattern based on the response Location header is not supported. Please use Azure Resource Manager connector instead if applicable.

Creating a connection
