Question
OAuth 2.0 authentication for Outlook in Pega 7.4
Hello,
Microsoft has recently announced that they will be retiring Basic Authentication for EWS, EAS, IMAP, POP and RPS on October 13, 2020 and suggested using OAuth 2.0 instead.
Currently in the Email Account instance there's only Basic Authentication available for IMAP and POP3.
Is there any document/steps/hotfix available to implement OAuth 2.0 authentication for IMAP to avoid disruption come October 2020?
Thanks
Thanks for the reply Kevin, but looks like this is only available in v8.4
What's the interim solution or plan for clients on v7.x because as things stand right now Basic Authentication for IMAP and POP3 will not work come Oct 13, 2020 as per https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/office/blogs/end-of-support-for-basic-authentication-access-to-exchange-online-apis-for-office-365-customers/
Hi Kevin,
This topic is getting pretty hot as many organisations migrate to Office 365.
Is there any uptade from product owners on the point? What is the recommended approach for Pega 7.3.1? Is there any backport from Pega 8.4 available?
Thank you!
We will consult the relevant product owners to reply back... but judging by the latest 8.4 release note, looks like Microsoft Graph is a better option: https://community.pega.com/knowledgebase/articles/whats-new-pega-platform/use-microsoft-graph-receive-email-more-securely-84
