Action Authentication#

Microsoft Entra ID uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Microsoft Entra ID account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Microsoft Entra ID and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Microsoft Entra ID API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
