Troubleshooting admin consent when connecting Outlook
If your team uses Microsoft's default user consent settings, or another workflow requiring Microsoft admin approval for apps, a Microsoft admin will need to grant access consent on the Permissions tab for Float within Microsoft, which should include Calendars.ReadWrite and Offline_access. If a Microsoft admin is unable to grant admin consent for Float, please ask them to follow these steps:
Delete the Float app in Microsoft in Enterprise app > Manage > Properties.
2. Grant access to Float with the link below (replacing tenant_id with the tenant ID you see in Entra):
4. Once access has been granted, please check if a team member can connect their calendar from Float.
