Prevent Microsoft connections from going offline intermittently

If you have a Microsoft connection that randomly goes offline every few hours, even though re-authentication isn’t yet required, your configuration is correct, and your credentials are valid — it may be due to a missing scope.

  1. Verify whether your connection includes the offline_access scope.

  2. If it’s not yet added, make sure to select it.

  3. If you’re using the HTTP view or if offline_access isn’t listed among the preselected scopes in the Basic view, toggle the HTTP view and manually add offline_access to the scopes.

The following Microsoft connectors may require you to manually include the offline_access scope:

  • Entra ID
  • SharePoint Graph
  • Excel online
  • OneDrive
  • OneNote
  • Calendar
  • Contacts
  • Mail
