// Install: dotnet add package Azure.Identity
using Microsoft.Graph;
using Azure.Identity;

// Delegated permissions - interactive user sign-in
var scopes = new[] { "Mail.Send.Shared" };
var options = new InteractiveBrowserCredentialOptions
{
    ClientId = "YOUR_CLIENT_ID",
    TenantId = "YOUR_TENANT_ID",
    RedirectUri = new Uri("http://localhost")
};
var credential = new InteractiveBrowserCredential(options);
var graphClient = new GraphServiceClient(credential, scopes);

// Example: GET /me
var result = await graphClient.Me.GetAsync();
Console.WriteLine($"User: {result?.DisplayName}");

JavaScript / TypeScript

// npm install @azure/msal-browser @microsoft/microsoft-graph-client
import { PublicClientApplication } from "@azure/msal-browser";
import { Client } from "@microsoft/microsoft-graph-client";
import { AuthCodeMSALBrowserAuthenticationProvider } from 
    "@microsoft/microsoft-graph-client/authProviders/authCodeMsalBrowser";

const msalConfig = {
    auth: {
        clientId: "YOUR_CLIENT_ID",
        authority: "https://login.microsoftonline.com/YOUR_TENANT_ID"
    }

const pca = new PublicClientApplication(msalConfig);
await pca.initialize();

// Delegated: Login with required scope
const loginResponse = await pca.loginPopup({

});

const authProvider = new AuthCodeMSALBrowserAuthenticationProvider(pca, {
    account: loginResponse.account,
    scopes: ["Mail.Send.Shared"],
