UiPath Sharepoint Application Scope can't access the SharePoint Site

Help Activities

Hi,

I am encountering the following error since yesterday for all our process that use
UiPathTeam.Sharepoint.Activities v1.7.0 with Windows-Legacy.

Sharepoint application scope: Cannot contact web site ‘https://{mySpSite}’ or the web site does not support SharePoint Online credentials. The response status code is ‘Forbidden’. The response headers are ‘X-NetworkStatistics=0,64229,0,0,5171882,939428,939428,19356, X-SharePointHealthScore=2, X-Forms_Based_Auth_Required=https:/{mySpSite} Access+denied.+Before+opening+files+in+this+location%2c+you+must+first+browse+to+the+web+site+and+select+the+option+to+login+automatically., SPRequestGuid=7d3408a2-40b2-9000-88e6-410dd690ab4b, request-id=7d3408a2-40b2-9000-88e6-410dd690ab4b, MS-CV=ogg0fbJAAJCI5kEN1pCrSw.0, Strict-Transport-Security=max-age=31536000, IsOCDI=0, SPRequestDuration=13, SPIisLatency=0, MicrosoftSharePointTeamServices=16.0.0.27125, X-Content-Type-Options=nosniff, X-MS-InvokeApp=1; RequireReadOnly, X-Cache=CONFIG_NOCACHE, X-MSEdge-Ref=Ref A: 6A541DB7EAB0427EBE0E1E2D0DC2AAFC Ref B: FRA261110502036 Ref C: 2026-04-09T07:18:08Z, Content-Length=13, Content-Type=text/plain; charset=utf-8, Date=Thu, 09 Apr 2026 07:18:08 GMT, P3P=CP=“ALL IND DSP COR ADM CONo CUR CUSo IVAo IVDo PSA PSD TAI TELo OUR SAMo CNT COM INT NAV ONL PHY PRE PUR UNI”, X-Powered-By=ASP.NET’.

Funny enought, same login type and activities work on Windows with
UiPathTeam.SharePoint.Activities v2.0.3 or v2.0.2

Is this a UiPath related issue?

Hello @codrut.ceaureanu,

It looks much more like your legacy package/authentication path has started failing because Microsoft is retiring legacy SharePoint Online authentication

Microsoft has announced that legacy SharePoint auth (IDCRL / old credential-based patterns such as SharePointOnlineCredentials) is being blocked by default in 2026, with full retirement on May 1, 2026; as of April 9, 2026, you are already inside that transition window. ref: Legacy SharePoint Authentication (IDCRL) Is Retiring — What to Do Before May 1, 2026 | Microsoft Community Hub

Treat 1.7.0 on Windows-Legacy as no longer safe for SharePoint Online.
Move those automations to UiPathTeam.SharePoint.Activities 2.0.3 on Windows projects if possible. Marketplace explicitly positions 2.0.0+ as the migration path from the old legacy package.

Thanks,
Karthik

I had indeed migrated a process to Windows and everything works regarding authentication. One more question. We are using the configuration PlatformType Online with Login Mode - Online - with username and password. Is this type in danger as 1st of may? or because I have new Activities with Windows they somehow solve what microsoft is blocking?

@codrut.ceaureanu

It is recommended to use official UiPath Microsoft related activities instead of 3rd part activities. They receive updated late

As it is a marketplace activity the support would be from the individual who built it opposing to the official activities

cheers
