Authorizing SharePoint Online API Connection in ARM Template

Question

Hi, I notice that after deploying the SharePoint Online connection alongside with my Logic App from DEV to Non-Prod environment, using ARM template, I need to manually re-authorize the SharePoint connection.

Is there a way to keep it authorized, using the ARM template when deploying? For example, is it possible to provide a service account or service principal credentials in the ARM template for the Microsoft.Web/connections resource?

Thanks!

Hi @Tran, Nguyen Thank you for posting the question on this forum.

Unfortunately, managed identity/Service Principal authentication is not supported for SharePoint connector. It only connects using credentials. There is a feedback item opened by the users on a similar ask in the past. Here is the link to the feedback request Kindly upvote the feedback request.

As an alternative in the meantime, you can try to call the SharePoint API using a HTTP trigger. Please refer a sample implementation provided in this article
