Konnect eMail Central requires administrator consent to connect users to their Microsoft 365 services. The add-in uses delegated permissions to SharePoint, Teams, and Microsoft Graph to enable seamless Outlook-to-SharePoint integration.
Follow the steps below to grant consent and deploy the add-in to your users.
Why is Consent Required
The add-in uses Entra ID (Azure AD) registered application to act on behalf of the user. This Entra app uses delegate permissions (act as the signed-in user). When a user signs into the app the user is authenticated against the client’s tenant (Entra ID) and acquires an access token. Any subsequent calls to SharePoint, Teams and Onedrive are validated using this access token.
What Permissions are Required
Note: all permissions are delegated only – this implies that the add-in can only work on user interaction and acting as the user
