I am currently experiencing an issue with our custom nodejs Outlook add-in. The add-in is failing to authenticate using Single Sign-On (SSO). Here are the details:

  • Issue Summary: Outlook Add-in SSO Failure
  • Description: Our custom Outlook add-in is failing to successfully authenticate using SSO. We are encountering authentication failures and need assistance in resolving this issue.
  • Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Create a vanilla outlook project following the yeoman generator to create an SSO outlook addin
    2. run the start script "npm start" -> which is this script:
           "start": "office-addin-debugging start manifest.xml"
      
    3. A browser is opened that I successfully sign in to microsoft account
    4. The browser shows a gray page with "You are signed in now and can close this page."
    5. my powershell shows an error in receiving a token...
    6. Observe the error message that appears after the authentication attempt.

  • Expected vs Actual Behavior: The add-in should authenticate using SSO and grant access to the required resources, but it fails to do so.
  • Environment Details:
    • Operating System: Windows 10
    • Browser: Chrome
    • Office Version: web

My attempts to resolve the issue:

  • I have deleted my account folder under the hidden directory .fx many times.
  • I have checked and rechecked the "scope" error. This is my manifest file:

Is there a way to lookup this specific tracingId to get more information on what is going on here?
Please let me know what more information would be helpful.

Thank you for your assistance.
