Approve Microsoft 365 access

Why is an approval needed?

Using our app requires delegated access to Microsoft 365, via the Microsoft Graph API. We use the most common form of delegated authentication flow, the authentication code flow via an Enterprise application. In many cases, access to Microsoft Graph resources is restricted by default. If you can’t login from Jira or Microsoft Teams, your Microsoft 365 or Azure administrator might need to consent to the app for you.

In case you are interested in the exact permissions and why we need them, please check out this dedicated permissions article.

Technical ids & scopes

Below you can find a list of necessary client ids and scopes. You only need to allow the Enterprise apps in case the feature should be used. Depending on the feature, there are also optional scopes which enhance the basic functionality, but are considered optional by us and can be omitted if not required - the app will gracefully handle the missing scopes.

The following base scopes are required for all features:

offline_access

Approving access for all users for our apps

To approve access for all users for the relevant apps, please send your Office 365 administrator the following links or use the links above. In this case your admin has to approve for every app separately.

Your admin will see the following screen, where the permissions can be confirmed.

Please note, that despite what the screen says in the subtext, we won’t get access to all user resources automatically after approving this. Before we can get access to any Office data, the users will need to log in with their own account as well from Jira.

Approving access for a limited set of users

In case you only want to approve the access for a limited set of users, e.g. you already have a dedicated AzureAD group for Jira users, you’ll need to do this via a Powershell script. The easiest way is to create a new .ps1 file on your computer and paste the following code. Make sure to adjust the client ids and scopes according to the table above.

POWERSHELL
# Install Microsoft Graph Powershell toolkit
Install-Module Microsoft.Graph -Scope CurrentUser

# The app for which consent is being granted. In this example, we're granting access
# to the Microsoft Teams Jira feature, use one of the following:

# The permissions to grant. Here we're including "openid", "profile", "User.Read"

$permissions =  @("openid", "profile", "offline_access", "User.Read", "email", "Channel.ReadBasic.All", "ChannelMessage.Send", "Chat.ReadWrite", "Team.ReadBasic.All", "User.ReadBasic.All")

# Step 0. Connect to Microsoft Graph PowerShell. We need User.ReadBasic.All to get
#    users' IDs, Application.ReadWrite.All to list and create service principals, 
#    DelegatedPermissionGrant.ReadWrite.All to create delegated permission grants, 
#    and AppRoleAssignment.ReadWrite.All to assign an app role.
#    Group.Read.All is necessary if you want to use users from a security group

                        + "DelegatedPermissionGrant.ReadWrite.All " `

$clientSp = Get-MgServicePrincipal -Filter "appId eq '$($clientAppId)'"
if (-not $clientSp) {
   $clientSp = New-MgServicePrincipal -AppId $clientAppId
}

Write-Host "Service principal for $($clientAppId) is $($clientSp.Id)"

# Step 2. Define users that should have the app consented
#         Either use a single, hard coded user (upn or GUID)
$userIds = @((Get-MgUser -UserId "someuser@contoso.com").Id)

#         Or assign app based on a security group
# $userIds = Get-MgGroupMember -GroupId '<groupGuid>' -All | % {$_.Id } 

# Loop over selected users
foreach ($userId in $userIds)
{
    # Step 3. Create a delegated permission that grants the client app access to the
    #     API, on behalf of the user. If the existing grant already exist, skip creating it
    #     Note: In case of changed scopes, this is not updated automatically yet
    $existingGrant = Get-MgOauth2PermissionGrant -Filter "consentType eq 'Principal' and principalId eq '$($userId)' and clientId eq '$($clientSp.Id)'" 

    if (-not $existingGrant) {
        $resourceSp = Get-MgServicePrincipal -Filter "appId eq '00000003-0000-0000-c000-000000000000'"

                                            -ClientId $clientSp.Id `
                                            -ConsentType "Principal" `
                                            -PrincipalId $userId
        
        # Step 4. Assign the app to the user. This ensures that the user can sign in if assignment
        #     is required, and ensures that the app shows up under the user's My Apps.
            # The app role ID 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 is the default app role
            # indicating that the app is assigned to the user, but not for any specific 
            # app role.
        New-MgServicePrincipalAppRoleAssignedTo `
                -ServicePrincipalId $clientSp.Id `
                -ResourceId $clientSp.Id `
                -PrincipalId $userId `
                -AppRoleId "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
    }
}

Creating the Enterprise application only for review purposes

In case you want to inspect the app first before approving is, you can just add the service principal to AzureAD.

Do do this, you’ll need to use Powershell to create it manually. For the “AppId” parameter, use one of the client ids listed in the table above, in this case the one for Teams.

POWERSHELL
# Install Powershell module for Azure (if you don't have it yet)
Install-Module AzureAD

# Connect to Azure interactively
Connect-AzureAD -Confirm

# Create the new service principal 
New-AzureADServicePrincipal -AppId 89d5ca9f-d63b-4885-bd30-6e7433c1540c -Tags {WindowsAzureActiveDirectoryIntegratedApp}

Afterwards, you should be able to find the enterprise app in the UI linked above, where you can restrict the application to certain users or groups, or, using the “Properties” page, allow users to self-approve the app:
