(VB.NET UWP/WinRT) Microsoft Graph OAuth2 App Authentication using Azure AD

Demonstrates how to get a Microsoft Graph OAuth2 access token from a desktop application or script.

The Microsoft Graph supports two authentication providers:

• To authenticate users with personal Microsoft accounts, such as live.com or outlook.com accounts, use the Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) v2.0 endpoint.
• To authenticate users with enterprise (that is, work or school) accounts, use Azure AD.

This example uses the Azure AD endpoint (for enterprise accounts).

This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.67 or greater.

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

Dim oauth2 As New Chilkat.OAuth2
Dim success As Boolean

' This should be the port in the localhost callback URL for your app.  
' The callback URL would look like "http://localhost:3017/" if the port number is 3017.
oauth2.ListenPort = 3017

oauth2.AuthorizationEndpoint = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/authorize"
oauth2.TokenEndpoint = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/token"

' -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Important: Notice that the above endpoints are the "Azure AD" endpoints, not
' the "Azure AD v2.0" endpoints.  The 2.0 endpoints are very similar. They are:
' https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/authorize
' and
' https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/token
' Pay close attention to the endpoints to make sure they match what you want.
' -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

' Replace these with actual values.
oauth2.ClientId = "MY_AZURE_AD_APP_ID"
' This is your app key/password/client secret:
oauth2.ClientSecret = "MY_AZURE_AD_APP_KEY"

oauth2.CodeChallenge = False

' -----------------------------------------------------------
' Important difference between "Azure AD" and "Azure AD v2.0"
' 
' When using the Azure AD v2.0, endpoints (for personal accounts), the desired
' scopes are selected by setting the OAuth2 Scope property here.
' However, when using the "Azure AD" endpoints, we DO NOT set the Scope here,
' but instead set the OAuth2 Resource property, as shown here:

oauth2.Resource = "https://graph.microsoft.com/"

' When using the "Azure AD" endpoint, the access token we receive will automatically
' be for the scopes matching the permissions granted for the app during the app's registration.


' Begin the OAuth2 three-legged flow.  This returns a URL that should be loaded in a browser.
Dim url As String = oauth2.StartAuth()
If (oauth2.LastMethodSuccess <> True) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(oauth2.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If


' At this point, your application should load the URL in a browser.
' For example, 
' in C#: System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(url);
' in Java: Desktop.getDesktop().browse(new URI(url));
' in VBScript: Set wsh=WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
'              wsh.Run url
' in Xojo: ShowURL(url)  (see http://docs.xojo.com/index.php/ShowURL)
' in Dataflex: Runprogram Background "c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" sUrl        
' The Microsoft account owner would interactively accept or deny the authorization request.

' Add the code to load the url in a web browser here...



' Now wait for the authorization.
' We'll wait for a max of 30 seconds.
Dim numMsWaited As Integer = 0
While (numMsWaited < 30000) And (oauth2.AuthFlowState < 3)
    oauth2.SleepMs(100)
    numMsWaited = numMsWaited + 100
End While

' If there was no response from the browser within 30 seconds, then 
' the AuthFlowState will be equal to 1 or 2.
' 1: Waiting for Redirect. The OAuth2 background thread is waiting to receive the redirect HTTP request from the browser.
' 2: Waiting for Final Response. The OAuth2 background thread is waiting for the final access token response.
' In that case, cancel the background task started in the call to StartAuth.
If (oauth2.AuthFlowState < 3) Then
    oauth2.Cancel()
    Debug.WriteLine("No response from the browser!")
    Exit Sub
End If



' Check the AuthFlowState to see if authorization was granted, denied, or if some error occurred
' The possible AuthFlowState values are:
' 3: Completed with Success. The OAuth2 flow has completed, the background thread exited, and the successful JSON response is available in AccessTokenResponse property.
' 4: Completed with Access Denied. The OAuth2 flow has completed, the background thread exited, and the error JSON is available in AccessTokenResponse property.
' 5: Failed Prior to Completion. The OAuth2 flow failed to complete, the background thread exited, and the error information is available in the FailureInfo property.
If (oauth2.AuthFlowState = 5) Then
    Debug.WriteLine("OAuth2 failed to complete.")
    Debug.WriteLine(oauth2.FailureInfo)
    Exit Sub
End If


If (oauth2.AuthFlowState = 4) Then
    Debug.WriteLine("OAuth2 authorization was denied.")
    Debug.WriteLine(oauth2.AccessTokenResponse)
    Exit Sub
End If


If (oauth2.AuthFlowState <> 3) Then
    Debug.WriteLine("Unexpected AuthFlowState:" & oauth2.AuthFlowState)
    Exit Sub
End If

Debug.WriteLine("Access Token = " & oauth2.AccessToken)
