Authentication Problems

[Cesaaar]

Hi,

I use sharepoint in Cloud and from yesterday I have an authentication error: "An error occurred while retrieving token: AADSTS70002: Error validating credentials. AADSTS50126: Invalid username or password. An error occurred while retrieving auth cookies"

Do you have some similar issues? It's a problem of Azure AD??

many thanks for support

Andrea

Are you using the method acquire_token_for_user(usernameg, password)?
If so, the password param is not the password you log in sharepoint, but the office 365 app id.

@DuiduiLi until June 20, I carried out the authentication to a site sharepoint with username and password, so now I have to register an office 365 app connected to the site sharepoint? correct?

Resolved. The issue was the use of a company user, for which a check is performed, only via browser, between Azure Active Directory and internal Active Direcotry. For the batch script, I have created a user in the cloud AAD.

Can you explain what is meant by office 365 app id?

What is the issue using company id, where any permission require to provide in Organisation side.
