Microsoft Word

Authentication

This connector uses OAuth 2.0. Scalekit acts as the OAuth client: it redirects your user to Microsoft Word, obtains an access token, and automatically refreshes it before it expires. Your agent code never handles tokens directly — you only pass a connectionName and a user identifier.

You supply your Microsoft Word Connected App credentials (Client ID + Secret) once per environment in the Scalekit dashboard.

Set up the connector

Register your Scalekit environment with the Microsoft Word connector so Scalekit handles the authentication flow and token lifecycle for you. The connection name you create will be used to identify and invoke the connection programmatically. Then complete the configuration in your application as follows:

1. Set up auth redirects

   • In Scalekit dashboard, go to Agent Auth → Create Connection. Find Word and click Create. Copy the redirect URI. It will look like https://<SCALEKIT_ENVIRONMENT_URL>/sso/v1/oauth/<CONNECTION_ID>/callback.

     

   • Sign into portal.azure.com and go to Microsoft Entra ID → App registrations → New registration.

   • Enter a name for your app.

   • Under Supported account types, select Accounts in any organizational directory (Any Azure AD directory - Multitenant) and personal Microsoft accounts.

   • Under Redirect URI, select Web and paste the redirect URI from step 1. Click Register.

     

2. Get your client credentials

   • Go to Certificates & secrets → New client secret, set an expiry, and click Add. Copy the Value immediately.

   • From the Overview page, copy the Application (client) ID.

3. Add credentials in Scalekit

   • In Scalekit dashboard, go to Agent Auth → Connections and open the connection you created.

   • Enter your credentials:

     • Client ID (Application (client) ID from Azure)
     • Client Secret (from Certificates & secrets)
     • Permissions (scopes — see Microsoft Graph permissions reference)

     

   • Click Save.

Code examples

Connect a user’s Microsoft Word account and make API calls on their behalf — Scalekit handles OAuth and token management automatically.

Proxy API Calls

Node.js

import { ScalekitClient } from '@scalekit-sdk/node';
import 'dotenv/config';

const connectionName = 'microsoftword'; // get your connection name from connection configurations
const identifier = 'user_123';  // your unique user identifier

// Get your credentials from app.scalekit.com → Developers → Settings → API Credentials
const scalekit = new ScalekitClient(
  process.env.SCALEKIT_ENV_URL,
  process.env.SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID,
  process.env.SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET
);
const actions = scalekit.actions;

// Authenticate the user
const { link } = await actions.getAuthorizationLink({
  connectionName,
  identifier,
});
console.log('🔗 Authorize Microsoft Word:', link);
process.stdout.write('Press Enter after authorizing...');
await new Promise(r => process.stdin.once('data', r));

// Make a request via Scalekit proxy
const result = await actions.request({
  connectionName,
  identifier,
  path: '/v1.0/me',
  method: 'GET',
});
console.log(result);

Python

import scalekit.client, os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()

connection_name = "microsoftword"  # get your connection name from connection configurations
identifier = "user_123"     # your unique user identifier

# Get your credentials from app.scalekit.com → Developers → Settings → API Credentials
scalekit_client = scalekit.client.ScalekitClient(
    client_id=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID"),
    client_secret=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET"),
    env_url=os.getenv("SCALEKIT_ENV_URL"),
)
actions = scalekit_client.actions

# Authenticate the user
link_response = actions.get_authorization_link(
    connection_name=connection_name,
    identifier=identifier
)
# present this link to your user for authorization, or click it yourself for testing
print("🔗 Authorize Microsoft Word:", link_response.link)
input("Press Enter after authorizing...")

# Make a request via Scalekit proxy
result = actions.request(
    connection_name=connection_name,
    identifier=identifier,
    path="/v1.0/me",
    method="GET"
)
print(result)
