Subject: Teams chat from Collaborate showing "Invalid Access token" for one specific user
Hi Team,
I’m facing an issue with Microsoft Teams integration through Collaborate in ServiceNow for a specific user.
Issue:
When the user tries to start a Teams chat from Collaborate, the following error is displayed:
Invalid Access token. Please check your credential alias.
Additional observations:
Teams chat functionality is working correctly for me and other users.
The issue is affecting only one specific user.
The user also has a soft PIN configured in ServiceNow.
In the Collaborate panel, the user presence was showing "Presence unknown".
Actions already performed:
Verified that the issue is user-specific.
Checked basic user details and profile information.
Has anyone experienced a similar issue where only one user is impacted? Could this be related to user mapping, OAuth token synchronization, Teams presence resolution, or another user-specific setting?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi @aparnaravi
1. Navigate to Manage Token
Check your Token for Azure is Expired or Active
Note: If Expired, generate the token again post adding scope as mentioned in step 2.
2. Go to Oauth profile for your connection. Make sure you have added offline_access .
To maintain your connection and generate refresh tokens that don't expire after an hour, you need to add this scope.
refer these KBs as well, if it helps you.
