Connect with Integration Service

Integration Service connectors use:

OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow with delegated permissions
OAuth 2.0 client credentials flow with application permissions.

The Microsoft 365 modern activities and triggers establish an authenticated connection to the Integration Service Microsoft OneDrive & SharePoint, Microsoft Outlook 365, and Microsoft 365 connectors. To learn more about Integration Service connections, refer to Set up Integration Service connectors.

When you connect to the Microsoft connectors in Integration Service, you have the option to use the standard Integration Service UiPath Public App registration (with a set of default, non-configurable scopes) or create your own application with Microsoft and customize the scopes you need.

Microsoft Authentication flow	Integration Service connection	API permission type
OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow	OAuth 2.0 Authorization code (Public App)	Delegated permissions
OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow	Bring your own OAuth 2.0 app	Delegated permissions
OAuth 2.0 client credentials flow	OAuth 2.0 Client credentials	Application permissions

Set up Integration Service connectors

To enable the Microsoft 365 activities and trigger activities, you must create connections for their respective Microsoft 365 connectors in Integration Service:

Calendar activities use the Microsoft Outlook 365 connector.
Excel Online activities use the Microsoft OneDrive & SharePoint connector.
Files activities use the Microsoft OneDrive & SharePoint connector.
Outlook activities use the Microsoft Outlook 365 connector.
SharePoint activities use the Microsoft OneDrive & SharePoint connector.

Additionally, you can access any Microsoft Graph API using the Microsoft 365 connector and the Microsoft 365 HTTP Request activity.

Important: For both Microsoft OneDrive & SharePoint and Microsoft Outlook 365, you can use the UiPath public application or bring your own application, with custom permissions. Follow the steps described in Microsoft OneDrive & SharePoint authentication and Microsoft Outlook 365 authentication.
