If your Microsoft account requires approval, a Global Admin must grant admin consent in Microsoft Entra to complete the Coffee connection.
When do you need this?
You’ll see this step if your organization requires admin approval to connect third-party apps like Coffee to Microsoft.
Step 1: Enable admin consent requests in Microsoft Entra (Global Admin)
Before approving Coffee, you must allow Microsoft to send consent requests to admins.
Go to 👉 https://entra.microsoft.com
Navigate to:
Enterprise applications → Consent and permissions → Admin consent settings
Under Admin consent requests:
Set Users can request admin consent to Yes
Add at least one user who can receive consent requests
Click Save at the top
ℹ️ Important
After this is enabled, other teammates must go through the Coffee Microsoft OAuth flow again so the consent request is sent to the admin for approval.
Step 2: Grant admin consent for Coffee (Global Admin)
Sign in as a Global Admin
Make sure you’re logged in with a Microsoft account that has Global Administrator permissions.Open Microsoft Entra
Go to 👉 https://entra.microsoft.com
(Formerly the Azure Active Directory portal)Go to Enterprise Applications
In the left navigation, click Entra ID
Select Enterprise applications
Find the Coffee app
Use the search bar
Search by app name: Coffee
Click the app
Open Permissions
Go to Security
Click Permissions
Grant admin consent
Click Grant admin consent for <Tenant Name>

That’s it. Once consent is granted, you can return to Coffee and complete the Microsoft account connection.
