Thanks for already updating the documentation! This allowed me to learn about TokenCredentialAuthenticationProvider while I'm currently looking into implementing the Microsoft Graph JavaScript Client Library. However, as being new to this library, it did took me half an hour to find this issue and realize I needed the @3.0.0-Preview.1 version of the npm package instead of @latest. Maybe it'd be worth mentioning TokenCredentialAuthenticationProvider is only available as of verion 3?

Also, I noticed the links to TokenCredentialAuthenticationProvider and ImplicitMSALAuthenticationProvider were broken on the doc about CreatingClientInstance. Maybe worth fixing?

Thank you @jeroenvdmeer !

Appreciate your feedback and will work on fixing the links.

Hi @nikithauc can I use version 3.0.0 on the front-end React client? Or can it only run on backend Node.js?

@andrew-hwahin you can use the library with your front-end React application. The library is isomorphic :)

This is working great in a NodeJS backend service! Was having issues with v2 of this SDK in combination with Client Credentials (server-side auth), but v3 works perfectly 🚀

For anyone who's interested in some demo code (NestJS/TypeScript), here it is: https://github.com/dennisameling/msgraph-nodejs-issue/blob/msgraph-v3/src/app.service.ts - steps to test in my demo repo are here: https://github.com/dennisameling/msgraph-nodejs-issue/tree/msgraph-v3#readme

[nikithauc]

@dennisameling Thank you so much for your feedback and for sharing the demo code!

TokenCredentialAuthenticationProvider

I just spent 3 hours looking for it! I'd recommend updating the docs to reflect that TokenCredentialAuthenticationProvider isn't available yet
