Office 365 SharePoint Connector - specific site authentication

Hello Everyone,

I would like to retrieve data from a 365 SharePoint site. I first tried the normal REST API path which does not work due tot he new authentication method that Microsoft introduce for those sites. I then tried via the web connectors but the Office 365 SharePoint connector requires to authenticate with admin rights against the base URL which in big organizations where everyone is creating a site for different reasons it's just not possible due to the sensitivity of the data.

Has anyone found a way to autheticate/retrieve data without having admin access to all the sites? Maybe using the simple General Web Connector?

Many Thanks

Iulia

You should be able to read this data, only using Consent if you are an administrator:

Select a Prompt/consent level:

  • Consent: Choose this option if you are an administrator.

  • None: Choose this option if you are a user and your administrator has already consented on your behalf.

  • select_account: Choose this to select which account to use. This will interrupt single sign-on. It provides a list of all the accounts either in session or any remembered account. Or you can choose a different account entirely.
