"Http with Microsoft Entra ID" Vs "Http with Microsoft Entra ID (PREAUTHORIZED)"

It depends on the Graph API end point that you need to access.

The preauthorized version is already setup to access certain endpoints and you cannot configure it to access missing end points.

The other version is not configured to access anything. And you need to configure and authorize it to access given end points yourself. But it allows you to configure missing endpoints from the preauthorized version. You need to configure this one via PowerShell Script.

This article describes the differences very well: https://forwardforever.com/what-is-the-difference-between-http-with-microsoft-entra-id-and-http-with-microsoft-entra-id-preauthorized-connectors/

That guide is useless. Can someone explain this better?

Hi @johnjohnPter ,

I found the following info in Connector reference overview | Microsoft Learn

HTTP with Microsoft Entra ID (preauthorized)
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/webcontents/

HTTP With Microsoft Entra ID
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/webcontentsv2/

Hope this helps.

Ellis
