Troubleshooting: Microsoft Outlook Calendar for Learning

Outlook Calendar integration isn't running or displays authentication error messages.

When you configure the Outlook Calendar integration, the integration runs every 15 minutes so the invites should send 20-30 minutes after the event, but Workday isn't sending invites or displays authentication error messages such as:
  • Graph API refuses to authenticate to provide Authorization Token. Please check credentials passed to Learning Calendar integration are valid.
  • Unable to retrieve token to authenticate to Microsoft. Not processing Calendar Events, Audit skipped.
The credentials for Microsoft Azure are incorrect.
  1. When registering a new application in the Microsoft Azure portal, ensure you enter the
    Secret Key Value
    rather than the Secret ID.
  2. Ensure the tenant name that you enter for the
    Tenant ID
    field ends with
    onmicrosoft.com
    . This is the tenant name used in the
    Edit Tenant Setup - HCM
    configuration. Example: If your company is called ABCinc, then your tenant name should be
    abcinc@onmicrosoft.com
    or similar.
