      Anmerkung

      These recommendations are only to ensure the best user experience for your users on AACAAC. Use your organization’s access policies to guide your permission selection.

      • Read-Only Access (Use Files.Read.All)

      • Read/Write Access (Use Files.ReadWrite.All)

      You can then create two separate connections for OneDirve on AACAAC. Then grant access to the appropriate connections for the respective users.

  9. Save your changes.

Create OAuth 2.0 Client for OneDrive

After the OneDrive client app is created, you must create an OAuth 2.0 client in AACAAC, which is used to integrate with the OAuth 2.0 Client app that you created in Azure.

Steps:

  2. In the lefthand menu, select User menu > Admin console > OAuth 2.0 Clients.

Create OneDrive Connection

After you have created the two OAuth 2.0 client references, you can create a connection to your OneDrive data.

Anmerkung

You must create a separate connection for each OAuth 2.0 client that is available in AACAAC.

For more information, go to Microsoft OneDrive Connections.

Troubleshoot Access Issues

In the above steps, you created an OAuth app in the Azure portal. However, unless individual users or user groups are entitled to access and use this app, they might not be able to use it with connections created in AACAAC. Use these steps to add users to the app:

  1. On the Azure Portal, go to Enterprise Application.

  2. Search for the OAuth application you created.

  3. Under the OAuth application, follow options a OR b:

    1. Select Users and groups from the left navigation panel and then add the approporate users and user groups.

    2. Select Properties from the left navigation panel and then set Assignment required? to No. This gives access to users without needing explicit assignment to the app.
