I have an Java backend app uses Azure Active Directory. I am using oauth2 bearer token to login. On backend side I am searching and using oauth2 attribute "preferred_username" and it works. However when I send login request from postman/insomnia there is oauth v1 token and there are oauth v1 attributes like instead of "preferred_username" there is "unique_name" but "ver" attribute is 1.0.enter image description here

The token type seems oauth2enter image description here

What causes this?

    In addition to @Sridevi s answer I realize that I need to add optional claim preferred_username as below from Azure Active Directory > App registrations > My App > Token Configuration. enter image description here

    Related documentation is https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/active-directory-optional-claims

    Both are fixed my issue.


  2. Please check the URLs you are currently using to send login request via Postman.

    To get v2.0 OAuth2 token, you need to use v2.0 endpoints:

    Go to Azure Portal -> Azure Active Directory -> App Registrations -> Your App -> Overview -> Endpoints

    In addition to that, ensure to modify Manifest file by changing accessTokenAcceptedVersion value to 2. By default, it will be null for single tenant applications.

    I tried to reproduce the same in my environment and got below results:

    Initially I generated access token with v2.0 endpoints, leaving Manifest file as default like below:

    When I decoded the token, I found OAuth2 v1.0 attributes like below:

    enter image description here

    In order to get v2.0 token, I changed App’s Manifest file like below:

    enter image description here

    I generated the access token via Postman with parameters like below:

    POST https://login.microsoftonline.com/<tenant_id>/oauth2/v2.0/token
    

    enter image description here

    When I decoded the above token, I got OAuth2 v2.0 attributes successfully like below:
