Observed behavior

Before you start

Ensure your smartphone with the Microsoft Authenticator app or your registered phone number is nearby, unlocked, and connected to a stable network to receive verification codes.

Solution 1Recommended

Verify Account Details and Complete MFA

Ensure you are signing in with the correct Microsoft 365 account linked to Legal Leap and properly approving the authentication prompt.

Integration failures often occur when a user is logged into a personal Microsoft account instead of their organizational account, or if the authentication prompt times out.

1
Check Account Credentials

Verify that the email address you are entering perfectly matches the organizational Microsoft 365 account connected to your Legal Leap profile.

2
Approve the Prompt

Keep your mobile device screen on. When prompted by Legal Leap, open the Microsoft Authenticator app to approve the request, or enter the 6-digit SMS code sent to your phone.

3
Use an Alternative Method

If you do not receive a prompt or code, click 'I can't use my Microsoft Authenticator app right now' on the login screen and select an alternative verification method, such as a text message or backup email.

Verify Account Details and Complete MFA
Authentication Timeouts: MFA prompts typically expire after 60 seconds. Be prepared to approve the request immediately after clicking the integration button in Legal Leap.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why am I not receiving the MFA verification code on my phone?

This usually happens due to poor cellular reception, network connectivity issues, or an out-of-sync Authenticator app. Ensure your phone has a strong signal, restart the device, or choose 'Sign in another way' on the login screen to use a backup verification method.

Can I bypass or disable MFA to connect Legal Leap faster?

As an end user, you cannot bypass multifactor authentication if it is mandated by your organization's security policies in Microsoft 365. Only your IT administrator can adjust Conditional Access policies to exclude specific apps or locations.

What should I do if Legal Leap still fails to connect after MFA is approved?

If your authentication succeeds but the booking process still fails, the issue is likely related to integration permissions or a lapsed Microsoft 365 subscription. Verify that you have an active Microsoft 365 Business license and that Legal Leap is granted permission to access your Outlook Calendar. If the issue persists, contact Legal Leap support.
