OneDrive Business Authentication

[DanielleParticipant]

Hello Support,

I have Microsoft One Drive for Business. How would I go about completing the authentication for the OneDrive backup plugin with Business OneDrive? The provided link in the instructions takes me to https://login.live.com which does not redirect me to login with a business account.

Best Regards

Same here.
And by connection to the live account I receive an error “technical problem”, etc., etc.
Need to fill in a redirection URL, but my wordpress site doesn’t use https. This is needed.
What to do?

Hi Danielle,

Unfortunately, Onedrive for Business uses a different protocol; UpdraftPlus can only use regular (i.e. consumer) OneDrive accounts (see the note in bold on the product page, here: https://updraftplus.com/shop/onedrive/).

Since many (if not most) website owners are using them for business, it seems odd to me that you don’t have a OneDrive business option. Is there a plan to add this in the future?

Hi Ken,

We do intend to add this in the future. Until recently, there was not a suitable API to allow UpdraftPlus to connect to OneDrive for Business.

Microsoft has been improving this, so hopefully this feature will be added in the relatively near future. However, we cannot currently guarantee any release date.

Best Wishes,

Hi,

Good news – the latest release of UpdraftPlus supports OneDrive for Business.

hello, how can I dock OneDrive for Business? It doesn’t work on me.
What is to be done?

Hi Dagmar,

Make sure that you are running the latest version of UD with the OneDrive extension installed. 2.14.8 or later.

I have installed the current version, the connection to the OneDrive Business is terminated with the error message “Invalid request (input not understood)”.

Hi,

Apologies for the delay.

Does this occur during a backup?
If so, please could you send us a copy of the log? This can be found in the Existing Backups tab.

The contents will be too long to post here directly, but you can use an online service such as Dropbox or Pastebin, and post the link here.

Best Wishes,

I have the same problem with OneDrive Business DE.

Most of the time, I get the same error message:
Invalid request (input not understood).

Sometimes I am asked to confirm the authentication. Then again comes the error and in addition the message from Microsoft:
AADSTS90056: This endpoint only accepts POST requests. Received a GET request.

Support request to Updraft and Microsoft are already provided. Hope this is fixed quickly!

Greetings
