❓ What does this mean?
We are excited to announce the integration of Open Authorization (OAuth) 2.0 into your Teams API-based message extension app. This integration ensures a secure method for accessing user data from third-party apps without exposing user credentials. With OAuth 2.0, you can grant access solely to the specific data required, and users must consent before the app can access their data. This is particularly beneficial for apps that need to access individual items for a user.
By using OAuth 2.0, your client app can obtain authorized access to protected resources like web APIs. OAuth is designed to work seamlessly with Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and uses access tokens to prove the app user's identity, allowing interaction with another service on their behalf.
We believe this integration will enhance the security and functionality of your app, providing a better user experience.
