Bearer Token from Microsoft has invalid signature

Question

I want to implement a client credential flow with Azure. I have registered two apps in Azure(MyApi and MyClient). The app from myClient sends a POST-request to MS to get the token. I send a request with this token to the Rest-API server. The answer is always 401 Unauthorized - Baerer error="invalid_token" error_description="The signature is invalid".

This is my setup in Azure:

MyApi

Client ID: client_id_MyApi

Tenant ID: tenant_id

Application ID URI: api://MyApi

API-Permissions: Microsoft.Graph -> User.Read

Expose an API -> Scopes: api://MyApi/accessAsUser App roles: accessAsApplication

MyClient

Client ID: client_id_MyClient Tenant ID: tenant_id

Api-Permissions: Microsoft.Graph -> User.Read, MyApi -> accessAsApplication

Config of the REST-API Server:

Program.cs
...
builder.Services
.AddAuthentication(JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme)
.AddJwtBearer(o =>
{
    o.Audience = client id of MyClient;
    o.Authority = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/tenenat_id/";
    o.IncludeErrorDetails = true;
    

});
...

FooController.cs

[Authorize(AuthenticationSchemes = JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme)]
[Route("Foo")]
[HttpPost]
public async Task Foo()
{
    await Task.Delay(1000);
    Console.WriteLine("!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!");
}

Post-Request to get a token from Microsoft:

https://login.microsoftonline.com/tenant_id/oauth2/v2.0/token HTTP/1.1

POST-Body:

grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=client_id_MyClient&client_secret=mysecret&scope=https://graph.microsoft.com/.default

Have you checked for typos in code? I spot 2 of them; Baerer and tenenat_id. — jan-marten

Note that: Microsoft Graph API token is not meant to be validated that is the aud https://graph.microsoft.com as it is not meant for the application.

https://login.microsoftonline.com/TenantID/oauth2/v2.0/token

client_id:ClientID
client_secret:ClientSecret
scope:https://graph.microsoft.com/.default
grant_type:client_credentials

When I decoded the access token, I got Invalid Signature error:

Hence you can avoid validating the access token for Microsoft Graph API.

You can validate the access token for your own API or application:

scope: api://ClientID/.default

Now I am able to validate the access token:
