Setting up a Microsoft OAuth Provider in DataEngine allows for secure integration with Microsoft services, enabling you to configure inbound or outbound mailboxes. Here is a simple step-by-step guide on how to establish the technical prerequisites:
Step 1: Create a “DataEngine” App in Azure
- Azure App Registration: Go to the Azure portal and register a new app. Follow this detailed guide: Azure App Registration
- Name the app “DataEngine” for clear identification.
Step 2: Configure App Permissions
Assign Permissions:
- IMAP.AccessAsUser.All: Enable this permission if the mailbox will also be used as an inbound mailbox.
- offline_access: Allow access even when the user is not logged in.
- SMTP.Send: Add this permission if emails will be sent from the mailbox.
- User.Read: Allows reading of user information.
Step 3: Add Redirect URL
- Set Up the Redirect URL: Access the app settings and add the following redirect URL:
https://<yourinstance.marini.systems>/index.php?entryPoint=setExternalOAuthToken
Step 4: Save and Transmit Important Information
- Save the Following Data:
- Client ID: Note the app’s Client ID.
- Client Secret: Keep the Client Secret ready.
- Authorize URL: Collect the URL for authorization.
- Access Token URL: Preserve the URL for the access token.
- Transmit Information: Share these details with your DataEngine administrator so they can be configured within DataEngine.
