Sometimes, when you sign up for Salesflare or accept an invite using Microsoft 365, Microsoft blocks you with a message like “Need admin approval”.

This simply means your company’s Microsoft 365 settings require an IT admin to approve new apps before employees can use them.


What to do

If you’re not your company’s IT admin

  1. Send the message below to your IT admin.

  2. Once they approve it, try again (open the invite link again or disconnect and connect Microsoft 365 in Salesflare).

Message to send to IT:

Hi there! Microsoft is blocking my Salesflare CRM login with “Need admin approval”. Salesflare needs access to my inbox so it can be used to list, send and process emails. Can you approve the Salesflare app for our Microsoft 365 organization so I can connect my email? You can do this through this link: https://salesfla.re/m365adminconsent

If you are the IT admin

Approve the Salesflare app for your Microsoft 365 organization:

  • If Microsoft shows you a consent screen, choose the option to approve it for the whole organization and confirm.

  • Or go to Microsoft Entra admin centerEnterprise applications → find SalesflareGrant admin consent. Or use this link: https://salesfla.re/m365adminconsent

After approval, the user can retry signing in and the invite should go through.


Still stuck?

Try again in a private/incognito window and make sure you’re signing into the right Microsoft work account (some people have multiple Microsoft accounts).

If that doesn't work either, reach out to us on the chat. We're happy to help!
