See more Office365 Examples

Demonstrates how to authenticate using OAuth2 using the POP3 protocol with outlook.office365.com.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.83 or greater.

Objective-C

#import <CkoMailMan.h>
#import <CkoJsonObject.h>

BOOL success = NO;

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

CkoMailMan *mailman = [[CkoMailMan alloc] init];

mailman.MailHost = @"outlook.office365.com";
mailman.MailPort = [NSNumber numberWithInt:995];
mailman.PopSsl = YES;

// Use your O365 email address here.
mailman.PopUsername = @"OFFICE365_EMAIL_ADDRESS";

// When using OAuth2 authentication, leave the password empty.
mailman.PopPassword = @"";

// Load our previously obtained OAuth2 access token.
CkoJsonObject *jsonToken = [[CkoJsonObject alloc] init];
success = [jsonToken LoadFile: @"qa_data/tokens/office365.json"];
if (success == NO) {
    NSLog(@"%@",jsonToken.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

mailman.OAuth2AccessToken = [jsonToken StringOf: @"access_token"];

// Make the TLS connection to the outlook.office365.com POP3 server.
success = [mailman Pop3Connect];
if (success != YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@",mailman.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Authenticate using XOAUTH2
success = [mailman Pop3Authenticate];
if (success != YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@",mailman.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Find out how many emails are on the server..
int numEmails = [[mailman CheckMail] intValue];
if (numEmails < 0) {
    NSLog(@"%@",mailman.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Examine the POP3 session log:
NSLog(@"%@",mailman.Pop3SessionLog);

// The POP3 session log will look something like this:

// **** Connected to outlook.office365.com:995
// < +OK The Microsoft Exchange POP3 service is ready. [QwBIADIAUABSADEAOABD...YwBvAG0A]
// > AUTH XOAUTH2
// < + 
// > <base64 string in XOAUTH2 format>
// < +OK User successfully authenticated.
// > STAT
// < +OK 3 375302

// End the POP3 session and close the connection to the GMail server.
success = [mailman Pop3EndSession];
if (success != YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@",mailman.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

NSLog(@"%@",@"Finished.");
