Eas-4-tbsync - force oauth and stops synchronize #92
Comments
Microsoft is deactivating non oauth access to Office 365. Are you using an account linked to a office 365 tenant, like a company? Do you have an IT appartment? I can of course add a switch to go back to the old behaviour, but that just gives you a couple of month grace time. using OAuth is the future and your IT appartment needs to approve :-( |
Yest it is a company account. |
"The IT guy just has to "use" TbSync with EAS once with his admin account and he will see a checkbox to grant access for all users:" |
Oh no, why? |
It is beyond me. I can use this extension, but I rather cannot force my admin to use it :) |
He does not have to use it permanently, just once to grant access. I will do some research, if you could also send some sort of link to your IT Department, where they can aknowlege that without having to really use it. For now: Switch to beta (https://tbsync.jobisoft.de) and set
in the advanced Thunderbird configuration |
I am afraid that I have no rights to speak in my company name. :(
Thanks. It works. |
Thanks, I have the same problem, and it solved it! |
One way or the other your IT must allow usage of my app before Basic Auth is removed. You said you do not want to force them to install Thunderbird which I can understand. The other option might be, that they log into their Office 365 Admin Interface and set a checkbox somewhere. If that is possible, I could post the link here, which you can then forward to your IT and ask them to acknowlege my app usage. |
Do we speak about the same things? I speak about "machine passwords" / "application paswords". |
Pity. It is clear, that MS wants to enforce use their solutions. Unfortunately there is no good exchange client for linux :( |
https://addons.thunderbird.net/addon/owl-for-exchange/ But it is a paid addon. |
I think the link you need to send to your IT is simply this: This will ask them to login and they can grant permission on behalf of their company. |
I just uploaded a new beta which no longer force switches users to OAuth. The OAuth setting is no longer needed (and removed). Only if you use the setup wizard to explicitly setup an Office 365 account, OAuth will be used. |
Has hit ATN as v1.9 |
Your environment
TbSync version: 2.8
EAS-4-TbSync version: beta 28.XI.2019
Thunderbird version: 68.2.2 (64-bit)
[ x] Yes, I have installed the latest available (beta) version from
and my issue is not yet fixed, I can still reproduce it.
Expected behavior
Calendar and contact are synchronized. Use machine password to login
Actual behavior
Pop ups oauth window, then I have to authorize and got message "Provider for Exchange ActiveSync for Office 365 needs permission to access resources in your organization that only an admin can grant. Please ask an admin to grant permission to this app before you can use it."
Of course I have no admin account.
Steps to reproduce
Simply try to sync.
Previous version (14 november) works
