Send Emails using office365 From a third application using Okta jwt token
Hello,
We have an inhouse single page application with uses okta kpce flow for user authentication. This application needs to connect to our Office365 Server (We use okta for authentication there as well when we are logging from the web interface) to send some emails to external addresses. Our spa application uses advanced authentication to connect with O365 using locally stored credentials in order to get the security token and send the necessary mails. Can we use directly the token we got from okta in order to remove the second authentication process, since okta and o365 are already linked?
Hello @User16747278415365934146 (Customer) Thank you for reacting out to our Community!
I have looked for a resolution on this matter but there does not seem to be an out of the box solution. I would believe that this is because Office365 is using WS-Fed for authentication and it does not utilise a token for authentication. I have also seen a similar ask on the developer forum but with no resolution as of yet.
My advice would be to leverage the Okta Developer forums and take advantage of their expertise, and maybe they will be able to point you in the right direction or towards a resolution.
