A few weeks ago, one of my flows with a Mail Tips action failed with the following error:

Error from token exchange: Bad Key authorization token. Token must be a valid JWT signed with HS256 Failed to validate token: IDXxxxxx9: XxxxSecurityKey validation failed. The associated certificate has expired. ValidTo (UTC): '4/5/2024 11:59:59 PM', Current time (UTC): '4/24/2024 9:36:35 PM'.

I tried changing the connection reference, which didn't work. To fix the issue, I had to recreate the workflow over. Now it is happening again on the new workflow.

Does anyone know the cause of this problem and how to permanently resolve the issue? I don't want to have to keep recreating the workflow every couple of weeks.

I wonder if this is related to the issue: Validate an Outlook add-in identity token - Office Add-ins | Microsoft Learn. It started happening the same time this was posted on April 9.

Any luck with figuring out what can be done to proactively prevent this from reaching the token expiration?

Thanks,

Andy

@Andy_Moyer unfortunately no. I found this: Azure App Expiry Monitoring with Power Automate & Graph API - DamoBird365. It requires that you have admin permissions to implement, which I do not have, and is not something our admins wanted to pursue.

If this is something you have and can set it up and it works, let me know and I will mark your response as the answer to this post. Or if someone else can confirm this post, let me know and I will mark your response as the answer.
