About OneDrive Scan to and Print from Folder OAuth

OAuth (Open Authorization) is known as an authorization protocol. It consists of a set of rules that allows a third-party website or application to access a user’s data without login credentials. This open-source protocol enables users to share their data and resources stored on one site with another site using a token-based authorization method.

Administrators can implement OAuth at the folder level by applying this protocol to the Scan to Folder and/or Print from Folder device button properties. This implementation is for OneDrive folders only. Users can authenticate via the WebApps Client or device in order to access their designated folders.

Note: Device authentication is not required if a user has previously authenticated via the WebApps Client.

Before you begin

You must have your groups, devices, and folders set up before you can implement OAuth at the folder/button level.
