As per @JOHN LEE
A new Hotfix version of the Probe for Microsoft Exchange Web Services (nco-p-ews-3_5) was released on 6 Dec 2023 to resolve the Proxy configuration for OAuth feature.
Release Notice: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/556231
Reference to documentation:
Connecting using OAuth authentication
Configuring the probe to connect using a proxy server for OAuth2 authentication
I recently installed Im-nco8-p-ews-3_0.zip (Release ID: 3.0.1) to start OAuth2 authentication testing.
I was told yesterday OAuth2 authenticaton is still not supported.
On November 19th, 2020, I worked with IBM and installed the EWS probe version lm-nco-p-ews-2_0. IBM Case support number TS004531925.
From the following time frame, November 19th to February 16th, 2021, I worked with the following; IBM, Microsoft, and internal Electroluxglobal security team members to determine that the software version for the EWS probe will not work for our team.
On February 16th, 2021, the IBM engineer, Steve, contacted the L3 support team: Please see details below:
the Software version lm-nco-p-ews-2_0 used to connect to Exchange Online mailboxes needs full tenant rights
The access that the software requires is not acceptable by our Electrolux global security team.
I created this RFE per IBM's recommendation to have the EWS probe software enhanced to support the following; XOAUTH2 to support the access of a single mailbox.
A new version of the Netcool/OMNIbus Probe for Microsoft Exchange Web Services will be available to download from 25 September 2020.
Refer to release notice: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/556231
The reference guide below details the steps to specify the authentication modes:
