This is useful when using a computer restricted according to Windows security policies to disable adding personal oneDrive accounts to the native Windows 10 synchronization application (a common configuration for work computers).

Take note that the aforementioned business Windows security policy must [authorize the underlying Azure libraries](https://github.com/Azure/Microsoft365R/blob/master/inst/app_registration.md) to get this to work at all, but it is common to find these libraries authorized (for other reasons), even in highly secure business environments. Some [Azure features](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/graph-data-connect/) rely on these libraries also.
Take note that the aforementioned business Windows security policy must [authorize the underlying Microsoft Graph API](https://github.com/Azure/Microsoft365R/blob/master/inst/app_registration.md) to get this to work at all, but it is common to find these libraries authorized (for other reasons), even in highly secure business environments. Fortunately, some key [Azure features](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/graph-data-connect/) rely on this this API also.

In brief, one generates an authentication token for the personal oneDrive account and declares it during an R session using .Renviron (see Renviron_example.txt). Once the session closes, the token is no longer available. Be advised that this method depends upon node.js (linked below) and the Microsoft Office 365 Command-Line Interface being installed on the workstation in use.
