I'm trying to test out the GettingStarted sample site with our LE instance but when I authenticate to my instance, I'm never redirected back to the sample site. This is not the case if I use the D2L provided sample site and login.
My steps:
- Open the sample site
- Update the fields
- Click on Authenticate
- Login to my D2L instance
- Never redirected back to the sample site.
Any suggestions?
I would verify the key you are using in the sample is present in the Manage Extensibility screen. More information on reviewing that is available at http://docs.valence.desire2learn.com/admin/manage.html
(App Keys are typically limited to a particular domain and the key with the samples are limited to the sample site).

I recently started getting into Typo3 but now I have to implement something for work and I have no clue where to start.
The requirements:
I have to add a separate page that can only be accessed by frontend
users. (so far no problem)
These frontend users should be able to login with the same password
as they got for their iOS app. (uh-oh)
The separate page should display data from the app. (less of an uh-oh
but connected to the previous point)
After talking to the developer of the app, he made a specific POST request that can be used for the webpage. I am also getting a json-file with the required data that I need to display upon successful login.
My question lies with the login. How do I go about implementing this? I use the extension felogin to provide the login form on the page.
The POST request is looking sort of like this:
https://domain.at/api/queryMediaItems. It needs user and password, declared as user and pwd. In the body there should be a json object with the language, e.g.:
{"language":"de-at"}
You need to implement a SSO (SingleSignOn) as your users need to identify against the iOS-app.
This might give you a concept.
You also can look inside the code of some extension
I have been trying to implement the OAuth v2 for Microsoft Accounts for my website. Its currently in development stage and so am testing on localhost. The Website is an ASP.NET Core MVC 5 Application.
I have followed the tutorial here to implement OAuth for Twitter, Google and Facebook accounts. I found this to be quite simple with only a few small issues that I was able to solve with simple google searches.
However I have spent several days trying to understand what is happening when trying to use Microsoft Account authentication on my site.
I have watched the video here on registering an application in the Microsoft App Registration Portal. At around minute 6 in the video a short demo shows how to set up the App. You can see my App details in the following screen shot:
In the video at about 7.5 mins in, there is a small section explaining how to test the App by building a URL string.
On submitting the query string to the browser the page is redirected as expected to my App page as you can see here:
In this instance I was all ready signed into my Microsoft Outlook account. If I wasn't signed in I would be prompted to login to a Microsoft account. Logging in, in this case choosing my already signed in Outlook account causes the page to be redirected back to my site as seen in the following screen shot but because the site didn't send the request its not expecting a token sent back for login so nothing really happens. This is expected behaviour, at this point as I was only testing that the Apps end point was working as expected.
[
The next stage is to test the functionality from my website. This is where I always have issues. To activate the OAuth functionality for Microsoft Account login requires simply un-commenting a couple of lines of code within the Startup.Auth.cs file in my websites App_Start folder and passing in the Apps ClientKey and ClientSecret values as can bee seen in the following code snippet:
app.UseMicrosoftAccountAuthentication(
clientId: System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["MicrosoftOAuthClientID"],
clientSecret: System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["MicrosoftOAuthClientSecret"]);
This code basically adds a little button to the login page that allows you to choose Microsoft login as can be seen here:
[
When I click the Microsoft button I get the following error page:
And the query string returned contains the following:
https://login.live.com/err.srf?lc=2057#error=unauthorized_client&error_description=The+client+does+not+exist.+If+you+are+the+application+developer%2c+configure+a+new+application+through+the+application+management+site+at+https://apps.dev.microsoft.com/.&state=JMxMRuKaOiYWCQw_Uqkhv3gLQn3ULlkG2miM4ymcHhTK5niXVQl5n4L0a6VoWeEKmFM7T1ciU2oQAh26_Y0i2DMjdt6BOAtpjNeMaSpBq4wbCjva9lOuctOUIWwoFdTEGvxJ4M904lUsoudd9e9cYi6eiH3JF81HB5ouQSus2ddE1sVUQLw-YB1GjUL79y2muFaBFIOIOk75oCV2IxX4cFO2rJU04K9Se6gxu698WpzR8taUB2c6tK9u0dBisckhavf0IvKB9dWQq-IVwQgvaA
Anybody know why or what is happening????
Now I have read in several of my many searches while trying to understand whats happening when I try to test the App from my site rather than a URL directly in the browser that I should have
/signin-microsoft
appended to my Redirect URL in the App Portals configuration. I have Tested with my Redirect URL set like that and this does not work. I get a HTTP ERROR 500 sent back because the page signin-microsoft does not exist. So this is not my problem.
Please help if anyone has had the same issues and solved it.
EDIT: I should have mentioned that I was initially trying this using Local IISExpress but after reading some posts saying it can be done only on IIS so I published my site locally to IIS.
I created a new ASP.NET MVC WebApplication in Visual Studio 2015 with the options to use School or Work Accounts to authenticate against an AzureAD. This worked fine.
Then I converted the Project to an App for Office Project as an Excel Task-Pane Add-In.
Then when I start the Application it starts an Excel Spreadsheet with a taskpane showing the request to login with Microsoft. When selecting an account or choosing to log-in with another account I get redirected to login.mocrosoft.com in a new Browser but receive the following error:
IDX10311: RequireNonce is 'true' (default) but validationContext.Nonce
is null. A nonce cannot be validated. If you don't need to check the
nonce, set OpenIdConnectProtocolValidator.RequireNonce to 'false'.
The URL shown in the new browser is "https://localhost:44300/" since I am debugging locally I take it.
Is this an issue because the authentication originates from the Task-Pane? Is the Task-Pane the same as an iFrame? If so it could be a similar issue as the following problem: OpenIDConnect Azure Website hosted in an iFrame within Dynamics CRM Online
Can I simply set the RequiredNonce to false? If so how?
Please help me to create an App for Office with Authentication against an AzureAD / Office365Domain? The AzureAD I am authenticating against is my private Free MSDN Subscription currently, wanting to use the company's Office365 AzureAD in future.
I am using Office2016, VS2015, Microsoft.Office.js Version 1.1.0.9.
First, it is feasible to do what you are looking for, have a look on my add-in: Keluro Mail Team. Keep on working, you'll manage to make things work^^.
Step1
First, start with the most simple scenario: your auth process should work in a standard window we sill see the sandboxed iFrame later. Check your OAUTH flow when browsing your 'app directly', i.e. test your authentication as a plain regular web app which is served in your case at https://localhost:44300/". To avoid javascript errors remove all Office.js related stuffs and the Office.Initialize function.
From the error message dealing with Nonce, I bet you are implementing a code authorization flow. This should be more or less something that looks like this sample. In this code authorization flow, the token and the REST requests are made by your server using an authorization token. Meanwhile authentication between your server and your web app is made with a plain old asp.NET cookie (in the sample above at least). This scenario is OK for our purpose, I use it too. To complete this step, try to request some basic stuff that is not related with Office.js but only with the Office 365 REST api. In one word forget that your developing and Office add-in, image you are developing an Office 365 web app.
Step2
Now that you completed Step1 you can go for step 2: make things work in a sandboxed iFrame within Office. Have a look at this blog post from Richard DiZerega. This is the most reasonable approach to handle OAUTH flow in a sandboxed environment. If you are using the sample mentioned in Step 1 above, the authentication between your server and your app is made using an asp.NET cookie. Following, Richard's guideline you could keep it in a server-side cookie dictionary after the popup OAUTH flow is completed and then set it in a request from the original iFrame. To recognize that the two windows correspond to the same user you can generate (cryptographically secure!) an id that you can pass in the two requests (parameters are encrypted in https). Ok that is complicated but it works. The SignalR technique Richard talks about is a plus for user experience but is not mandatory, that could be a Step3.
I solved my issue by adding https://login.microsoftonline.com and https://login.live.com to the App Domains in the App Manifest. I dont understand the technology, so I cannot comment on why this works, but the solution works for me.
I'm just getting started with D2L and am running into problems.
On the "Getting Started" page, I have completed the first three steps:
1) Acquire an App Key/ID pair from D2L - I have received the App ID and App Key
2) Create a test account in your host LMS - I have created a new user account with the administrator role for testing
3) Choose a client library to work with - I am using the PHP SDK
4) Authenticate with your LMS - This is where I'm running into trouble.
When I use the Getting Started sample:
http://samples.valence.desire2learn.com/samples/GettingStartedSample/
And enter my host, app ID and app key and hit on the "Authenticate" button, I get a "This application is not authorized on this LMS instance. Ask your administrator to authorize this application" error.
I am an administrator on my D2L host and I'm not sure how to authorize my own app.
I have tried the following:
Navigating to the "Manage Extensibility" page because that's where D2L says my app should be located, but it isn't there.
Enabling the API (d2l.Security.Api.EnableApi) under the "DOME" page to no avail.
What am I doing wrong?
Based on your question and comments, there were two issues here:
First is that the list of App ID/Key pairs appropriate for your LMS get regularly fetched by your LMS from the D2L KeyTool service. The schedule for this fetching is once a day; accordingly, if the scheduled task isn't set up, or if your LMS isn't identifying itself properly to the KeyTool service, or if time hasn't yet elapsed after key granting to the next scheduled run of the task, the App won't yet be in your LMS' Manage Extensibility list. It sounds like you no longer have that issue.
Second is that the Valence Learning Framework APIs' authentication process (requesting and retrieving a set of user tokens for an LMS user) requires several LMS features to be properly set up: (a) the LMS must be configured to support Deep Linking, (b) the LMS must be set up to handle the ?target= parameter on incoming client URL requests, and curate that parameter throughout the user authentication process.
In cases where your LMS is not doing the user authentication but depending upon another, third-party IDP (like Shibboleth), any ?target= parameter passed into the login process must be taken care of by the IDP and properly handed back to the LMS after user authentication. In a situation where you have multiple redirections occurring during user authentication, this can involve successive generation of a target parameter, and each generation must re-URL-encode the previous request URL in its entirety (like sticking an envelope inside another envelope, inside yet another envelope).
If your LMS is not properly configured to support these two points, which you might not notice during other operations, then client calls to the Learning Framework APIs won't work because the calling client won't be able to fetch back a set of user tokens.
To solve the second of these issues, you may have to contact D2L's Customer Support desk -- they can verify, and adjust as necessary, the LMS configuration part of this authentication chain. If you're integrating your LMS with other third-party IDP components not administered or deployed by D2L, then you might also need to adjust their configurations: D2L can likely advise on what needs to be done there (curate the target parameter on URls), but cannot adjust the configuration for you in those cases.
I am new to developing a Salesforce app and I am using OAuth 1 for authentication.
I am able to generate the Request Token, and I re-direct the user to the salesforce site.
Once I enter my credentials, I get a
Remote Access Authorization Error
There was a problem in setting up your remote access
with
oauth_error_code=1800
In my Login History page, it shows Status as Success for Application type OAuth.
I don't get any entry in my Debug Logs page.
I have enabled Development Mode.
Any ideas whats wrong?
So https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/success is a stub URL for callbacks - and that is the screen you are seeing there, and the access_token variable is your session ID for the user. So the OAuth flow is working correctly.
In the code, you might check to see if oauthResponse.access_token is getting set correctly. If so, it looks like:
sfw.login( setupHomeView );
That is what should tell it to move from that page to the next UI page.
You might also check out the Force.com Mobile SDK (link). It also includes PhoneGap and has a great OAuth wrapper built in.
