Authorize the Microsoft 365 Experience

You can authorize the Microsoft 365 experience (for example, Microsoft Office) in M-Files Manage, by providing your Tenant ID and consent as a Microsoft 365 administrator.

To grant tenant-wide admin consent, you need:

  • A Microsoft Entra ID user account with one of the following roles:

    • Privileged Role Administrator, for granting consent for apps requesting any permission, for any API.
    • Cloud Application Administrator or Application Administrator, for granting consent for apps requesting any permission for any API, except Microsoft Graph app roles (application permissions).
    • A custom directory role that includes the permission to grant permissions to applications, for the permissions required by the application.

Use this procedure to authorize the Microsoft 365 experience for your M-Files Manage subscription. Available Microsoft 365 experiences: Microsoft Office.

  1. Make sure that you have permission to give tenant-wide admin consent.
  2. Log in to M-Files Manage at https://manage.m-files.com.
  3. On the Home page, find the Microsoft 365 experience section and select Authorize.
  4. Provide the Microsoft 365 Tenant ID when prompted.
    For information on where to find the Tenant ID, see How to find your tenant ID in Microsoft documentation.
  5. Sign in to Microsoft using your organization's single sign-on (SSO) when prompted.
    You will be asked to provide administrator consent for the Microsoft 365 experience during activation.

After successful sign-in and consent, the Microsoft 365 experience is connected to your M-Files Manage subscription.
