What this guide helps you do
Use the account OAuth path. The workflow below follows the supported application or module flow and does not invent a menu or bypass validation.
Follow these steps
- Go to the exact navigation path shown above.
- Select the authorised mailbox, message or configuration record.
- Complete the fields or action described in this guide.
- Save or submit once, then verify the resulting status and related record.
Fields and options
- Authentication: OAuth
- OAuth values exposed by form
Rules and limits
- Auth type must be oauth.
- Store only the OAuth values exposed by the form.
- Provider remains custom in the supplied build.
Check it worked
- The requested Mailbox Exchange record is updated through the supported controller and remains attributable to the acting staff member.
Security, audit and troubleshooting checks
- Use the exact authorised account, role and record before saving or sending.
- Verify the saved status and downstream record; a browser success message alone is not sufficient evidence.
- Never expose passwords, API keys, access tokens, protected attachments or raw server paths in support tickets.
- Do not edit module or core database records directly to bypass validation, permissions, migrations or state rules.
