Connect with Microsoft

Metaview's Microsoft integration supports single sign-on (SSO), and user and group provisioning. Metaview admins can seamlessly manage user permissions and role-based access controls. Users can safely and securely sign in to Metaview using their existing credentials.

Signing in

Use the Continue with Microsoft option to create your account or to sign in with your work email.

You will need to use your work email to sign in with Metaview using Microsoft. Metaview does not allow you to use a school or personal email like @outlook.com for account creation.

Permissions

To use Microsoft sign-in, the following permissions need to be granted, which allow Metaview to authenticate your account and connect your Outlook calendar:

  • Maintain access to data you have given it access to

    • This maps to the offline_access scope in Azure AD / Microsoft Graph, which allows Metaview to maintain access to a user's account without asking them to sign in repeatedly.

  • Sign in and read user profile

    • This allows users to sign in to Metaview and allows Metaview to read the profile of the signed-in user. It also allows Metaview to read basic company information. This maps to the following scopes:

      • openid and profile: standard OpenID Connect scopes for authentication and basic user information.

      • email: to retrieve the user’s primary email address.

      • User.Read: a Microsoft Graph delegated permission that allows reading the signed-in user’s basic profile (e.g., name, email, photo).

  • Read user calendars

    • This permission grants read-only access to a user’s calendar events. This corresponds to the Calendars.Read permission via Microsoft Graph and allows Metaview to call these endpoints:

      • GET /me/calendars to read the signed-in user’s calendars

      • GET /me/events to read the signed-in user’s events

If your access is blocked, you may need to request App Approval from the IT department that manages your Microsoft Workspace. If admin consent is granted for delegated permissions, users will not see additional prompts, but Metaview will still only access calendars on behalf of each user who signs in.

Please contact support@metaview.ai if you have questions or encounter issues signing in with Microsoft.
