Hi -

I have this setup on our F5 APM and using it for a MS Sharepoint Website. I've configured it as per-request policy and I can authenticate via DUO MFA using the Oauth Client in the policy and it gets me into the site. The problem I am encountering comes when an authenticated user tries to open a document in the "native", local Office application (Word, Excel Powerpoint). It doesn't work for that use case, Do you have any ideas on that?

We have been using the F5 APM DUO RADIUS integration and we have the same issue with that. That is why I am trying this new Oauth/iRule integration that you have published here.

By the way. Nice job on this config and write up!

Thanks

-Steve
