Sharepoint Online REST API with Azure AD v2.0 authentication

Question

Is it possible to authenticate to Sharepoint Online REST API with Azure AD application v2.0 authentication? If yes, which scope should I use for requesting my permissions. Now (for MS Graph API usage) I request "https://graph.microsoft.com/.default" as scope but didn't find any alternative to this for Sharepoint Online REST API.

I already registered an application on apps.dev.miscrosoft.com, this application is available on portal.azure.com. There I have added required permissions for Sharepoint Online.

Answer 1

Yes you can. To do this first you need to get a new access token using a regular refresh token you got for the graph already:

POST https://login.microsoftonline.com/{{tenantName}}/oauth2/v2.0/token

Except this time pass the following for the scope header:

https://{{tenantName}}.sharepoint.com/Sites.Read.All

Your application will need to already be consented for this scope etc...

The response will give you can access token that can be used again SPO APIs.

Answer 2

It should be the same authentication with Azure AD, the scope you are looking for should be the Site scopes.

Do not have SharePoint sites to check but if permission are granted to the application you should be able to query SharePoint site using Azure Graph APIs.
