Passing in ClientID does not show the proper email/account

Related to #17 I was debugging and found out the ClientID is being populated by the cache on my system. I go to the https://account.live.com/consent/Manage for my LiveID that is tied to my MVP account, pulled the ClientID and tried to pass that to the Set-MVPConfiguration and it does not correct the problem.

So even passing in the right ClientID does not cause the OAuth to show the right email/account.

There has to be some way of making that form prompt for the email instead of hitting the cache.

I went and just revoked the client id my cache is showing for the wrong account and it still picks it up for some reason. The only option can't be to always clearing the cache on the machine I'm using.

This is still an issue and I'm not seeing how to make it work properly. It is picking up my second account for Live ID because I use a different account to login to Azure. However, it is not offering a method to select which account I use like most APIs will.

Hi @wsmelton Thanks for reporting. I'll check how I can show multiple accounts. The HTML page showed in the window is provided by Microsoft Authentication, so not sure it is possible.

The team in charge of the API is hard to reach unfortunately 😞

Hi,

Last year I was able to update my MVP profile using the MVP module. This year was different. I only got errors and had to do everything manually ;-(. One of those errors being:

Get-MVPContribution
Get-MVPContribution : {"Message":"Not able to find user","MessageDetail":"The e-mail address given,
xxxx@live.com, did not match to an ID for user lookup","StatusCode":400}
At line:1 char:1

  • Get-MVPContribution
  •   + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (System.Net.HttpWebRequest:HttpWebRequest) [Get-MVPContribution], WebE
 xception
  + FullyQualifiedErrorId : WebCmdletWebResponseException,Get-MVPContribution

the e-mail address xxxx@live.com is wrong. it should be something else.

Is there already a solution for this or at least a workaround?

thanks!

@zjorz I'm not able to reproduce unfortunately, @wsmelton seems to have the same issue. Unfortunately the MVP API team has not been responsive so far...

  • can you share the commands you use to authenticate ?
  • can you provide your context (OS, PowerShell, version, module version)

Hi,

Sure I can tell you what I do AND what I experience....

when executing: Set-MVPConfiguration -SubscriptionKey $SubscriptionKey
the authn window pops up and disappears immediately without allowing me to enter anything. In the past I was able to provide the creds to authn

my MVP profile is connected to Microsoft account: msft1

Get-MVPProfile -ID xxxxx works correctly and displays the correct info

Get-MVPContribution gives an error and mentions an incorrect mail address. The e-mail address listed is a microsoft account msft2 one that I have configured in Office outlook

I'm wondering WHY the authn window pops up and goes away suddently. It looks as if it is using some cache or the credentials or something like that
