If you're a student using the Studo app at a university that uses Office365 and want to use the Studo app to access your mails, you might get an "Approval required" popup that looks like this:
This happens if your university requires administrator approval to use third-party apps, like the Studo Native Mail Client. This means that you can request your university's Office365 administrator for approval. Once they gave approval, you can log in and give the Studo app access, so you can use the app to send and receive mails.
Some universities don't give the option to "request administrator approval" directly. You may see a "Need admin approval" screen like this:
In this case, please contact your universities helpdesk via mail and ask them to give approval for the Azure application "Studo Native Mail Client - Secure University Mails", so you can use Studo to access your mails. It's helpful to include a link to this FAQ article.
Azure Administrators
Approve the Studo application.
You can approve the Studo application by clicking here:
A white page will be displayed after approving the Studo mail application. You can determine if it was successful by looking at the URL in your browser. If it contains "admin_consent=True", the permission was granted. We are working on improving the experience. You can also use the instructions "See what permissions are currently granted to the Studo mail application" to check.
Alternatively, if your users have requested admin consent, you can approve the request using the Azure portal. The result will be the same as clicking the above button.
The steps are also explained by Microsoft in this article.
