On June 25 2024, you must re-authorize incoming mail access to your Microsoft mail server

@Bobby Darian Did you open a support ticket?  I did, and they applied a fix on the back end and now I can get in.

Be prepared for some entry level support questions.  Head them off and provide answers to these:

  1. What required a reauthorizing and is now receiving a HTTP 504 error 
  2. Can you share the URL where you're receiving this behavior?
  3. Is this happening to all users or only some of them are facing issues?

@Randy Padgett  - if you are using an unlicensed account, like a shared mailbox in O365, try adding a license.   Another user in this thread was using a shared mailbox, he added a license, converted it to a user mailbox and reauthorized.  He then converted back to a shared mailbox.

Hi everyone,

Which permissions are required in Azure Enterprise app?

I have to approve the admin consent but this just adds my email address to the incoming server instead of the proper email address.

Anyone knows how to fix this?

Thanks

---Edit---

I resolved this by deleting the Enterprise app in Azure and then run thr re-authorize process again > user does not have permissions so I logged in as Azure admin > this gave me a Consent box which I checked (while signed as Azure Admin).

Hi :-)

I have re-authorized one of our mailboxes and got an e-mail from mssecurity-noreply@microsoft.com:

Public Administration

Informational Azure Active Directory is now Microsoft Entra ID. Learn More.

Jira cloud access request received

Your request has been received. Details of your request are below.

Requested app: Jira cloud
Status: submitted
Request date: July 10, 2024
Expiration date: August 9, 2024

Anyone know how long this will take to be be accepted? Or do I have to contact our 365 Service provider?

Cheers,

@Björgvin Arnarsson , our Outlook admin had to authorize JIRA app request in his console. If your Outlook is managed by a 3rd party, you have to contact them and have them look for new request. (we had to do the same a few weeks ago when Atlassian pushed this change out, had issues and rolled it back). 

Once that's done, try authorizing again. Keep in mind it will try to authorize using YOUR account if you are logged in. This is not correct -  you need to say use different account and use email and password combination that was used to set up mailbox. If you don't have that info, you need to change password for that mailbox first and then come back and authorize again.

Hi @Nicholas Starinsky that was excatly the answer I was hoping for and not have to wait for Microsoft ;-)

I knew about the login I had to use so I'm good

Thank you very much Nicholas :-)

Cheers and have a fabulous day :-)

If anyone has still the issue that Jira doesn't process mails after re-authorization and you are using Exchange Online accounts, then check if your user/mailbox has the language set to English.

We were using mail accounts with German language setting and it didn't work. Connection succesful but no processing of emails in the Inbox. After changing the language to English it worked immediately.

According to the Atlassian support this is a known issue they are already working on but it's still not clear if the cause lies in Jira or Microsoft side.

incoming mail handlers are not working. we need this solved. thanks

I re-auth last Friday 05/07/24 and all incoming mail handlers auth fine, emails logging Jira tix fine.

Then we get the re-auth again yesterday morning... again I did the re-auth... 

What is actually happening on the Jira side? 

In the MS Azure side I saw nothing logged or changed since the 05/07/24 but had to re-auth in Jira again??

To fix this, I had to delete the Enterprise app in Azure > reauthorize it to create a fresh enterprise app with admin consent permissions > re-authenticate the mailboxes

Hello,

we were prompted to re authorize, so I'm assuming the changes were rolled out for our site.

Right now none of our custom mail handlers work.

Re-configuring the mail handlers also did not work.

I followed the following steps, 

 

  1. Open Jira, navigate to the cog icon and select System > Incoming Mail.

  2. Locate the mail server listed with the Microsoft OAuth Authentication Type.

  3. Click on Edit, followed by Re-authorize.

 

And received the below email.  Please advise what happens next ?

If you've re-authenticated your Office365 mail server in Jira and the emails are still not pulling through. 

To resolve this issue, please perform one of the following steps:

  1. Change the Language: Change the language of Outlook Web and Outlook app to English. After making this change, please wait for a while and check if the issues have been created.
  2. Update Folder Name: You can update the translated name of Inbox from Outlook in the Folder Name section on the mail handler configuration

Changing the inbox name to your local language should fix the issue as Microsoft has recently updated their API and we are supposed to enter the inbox name in the local language.

Update from me :-)

I had my 365 Service Provider accept my mailboxes requests and then performed a "Re-Authorize" again and everything is working perfectly now :-)

Thanks everyone for your help, you are awesome <3

Cheers,

We just went through the process yesterday.

  • You must re-authorise with the email account's login, not your email admin account. This was something that was not explained as previously when we configured a new email account it requires your mail admin to login to authorise the config. With this change, you need to re-authorise with your email account's login details.
  • Once re-authorised, the banner should disappear if successful.
  • Emails will now remain in the mailbox when the email processing is successful where as previously it would get deleted. This could be bad as you can't tell if it has failed.
  • There isn't any entries in the Audit Log regarding the mail processing so you can't tell what is happening so the only way is to test it and see if it works.

Not sure we use this (we use Jira Service Management instead), I tried to authorise what looks to be a default 'Cloud Support Mailbox' and it fails... Do I simply delete it, or should I raise a support call to try to understand how it's failed?

When I reauthorized on this page .All the incoming mail id , it picked my email by default , it should have been mail id for that project as it was configured earlier. So the incoming mail to that mail id is used to create issues in a particular project.

e.g My email id is Abc

project catch email id is xyz for xyz project

when I reauthorize its abc for xyz project.

Now its creating issues in that project that I received. Its entirely wrong.

Did I need to change something else?

@Anuradha Das- you need to reauthenticate as the original catch ID. So when it asks you to login to reauth, don't put your own ID in, use the catch ID/password.
