I am trying to login website with yammer credentials using REST api. I have registered in yammer API. Now i have got developer token and Client ID from Yammer website.
Could you guys please let me know what is next step to login with yammer credentials from our application using c# in visual studio. Because i am beginner in using API.
Thanks!
You have a couple of options:
The JS SDK approach -

The ADAL approach -
https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/israelo/2016/07/05/yammer-apis-and-adal-tokens/
The first open will request users to login via a browser pop up, and the second option can utilise IWA, but there are some pre-conditions and limitations as it is still in preview. Details are in the blog.

I have created a web application and I would like users to be able to log into their own Facebook account to publish posts on their Facebook profile from my web application.
Every time I connect them to Facebook with authentication, I get back a token that does not retain the requested permissions, especially "write to profile".
I am on Laravel.
I have tested with PHP SDKs, with Socialithe and even with PostMan. I can't find the solution.
Do you know if this is possible? And how?
Thanks
I have a bot running on a hosting page where users are logged in using SSO.
I want to authenticate the user in the bot automatically when the bot starts and I do not want to use anAuthCard to do it. Just want to automatically authenticate the user without prompting anything to him, just using SSO.
I found an article that refers three ways to authenticate an user in the bot:
Sharing the client's user token directly with the bot via ChannelData
Using an OAuthCard to drive a sign-in experience to any OAuth provider
A third option, called Single Sign-On (SSO), that is in development.
And, according to the article my situation is:
WebChat in an authenticated website where the user is already signed in and the website has a token to the same identity provider but to a different app that the bot needs -> in the future, this is single sign-on, but for now you 'll need to use an OAuthCard.
Is there any update about this functionality? How can I authenticate the user into the bot without using an OAuthCard or a SigninCard?
Thanks in advance
Not sure if you have tried the option of using WebChat with Azure Bot Service’s Authentication which provides built-in authentication capability to authenticate chat users with various identity providers such AAD, GitHub, Facebook, etc.
If you are looking for this built-in feature, then probably you need to build your own custom built solution using Google sign-in by passing the token ID of the authenticated users. Or for an Account linking OAuth2 solution as explained in this link: How to implement Login in Dialogflow chatbot.
Microsoft guys Are looking at the issue now. you can track the progress here.
I implemented a solution that worked for me. I have the bot running in a .net core web app
Here's what I did:
Generate an userId before initializing the BotApp
When the user clicks on the button to open the webchat, I'm opening an authenticated controller in a popup that receives the generated userId. The page is authenticated, so you will need to authenticate. I store the userId in my DB, along with access_token and some user information. The controller should be created in the same webapp where the bot is running.
After storing all the information I close the tab and start the BotApp with the generated userId
In bot code you will be able to query your DB (using userId).
To wait until the popup close, you can have a look into this here.
I hope that this helps someone.
Best regards
I have downloaded that example:
https://github.com/mraible/okta-spring-boot-angular-example
it works fine but I have no clue how to to authenticate with facebook or microsoft account? Is there any working example with that identity providers or can someone tell me what to do?
I have found example at okta website how to configure that in dashboard and at microsoft developer account but I don't know how to redirect from my webpage to site where I can sign in using microsoft account not okta account.
Thanks in advance
Once you configure IDP using this. At the end, they give you options for integration. For example, if you are looking to integrate Facebook, at the end of the guide they give you an html button you integrate with your apps or if you are using Okta's sign-in widget. It shows how to do so.
I am using yammer REST API to get group data in sharepoint from yammer, it is opening a new tab for authentication. Is there any way to prevent this new tab?
I tried to open yammer in a hidden iframe, which gives me error - "Refused to display in a frame because it set 'X-Frame-Options' to 'sameorigin'."
It sounds like you're using the JS SDK to make REST API calls. It needs a way to authenticate those calls so if it doesn't have an OAuth token to use from another source, it prompts you to login. Take a look at this blog post that describes how to preauthorize the JS SDK so you can start making API calls scoped to the user loading the page without requiring any interaction from the user.

I need to add the new embed Yammer Widget to a page. I managed it by simply adding the embed code to my page, but the yammer login seems to appear all the time.
I have to say that I don't have any experience with Yammer but I've read the Yammer Embed Installation Guide as well as other documents. Still, I am not able to find whether or not it is possible to pass some kind of credentials (mail, etc.) in order to prevent the embed yammer to display the login to the user or at least have the login display only once.
Can anyone help me?
From Yammer support: "A user would still need to log in to both your intranet and Yammer embed instance even with Single Sign On enabled. There is an open project for our Product team to allow for just a single log in so that when a user is logged into SSO for your intranet, they would also be auto-logged into embed."
If you add both the Host site and Yammer (https://.yammer.com & https://.assets-yammer.com) to the trusted zone in IE, it should pass the OAuth token after the first login and authorisation. I've tested this in IE8 and IE10 successfully.
