Hello, I have a few questions regarding my angular application that uses Appwrite and is intended to run inside an iframe of a SharePoint web part.

As I want to run the application in SharePoint, I have created a WebPart the integrates the application via an iframe. I am using Appwrites authentication and would like to use Microsoft OAuth. However, I understand that this is not possible inside an iframe.

Currently, as a workaround I can get the OAuth access token via the WebPart and pass it to the angular application. This is as far as I get, as I have no idea on how to start a session for the correct user using the appwrite api with the access token.

Therefore, I was wondering if the workaround as I have envisioned it is even possible. If, yes, how would I continue the login process? If, no, is there another / better workaround possible? Any help is appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

TL;DR
Developers are looking to integrate an Angular application using Appwrite into an iframe within a SharePoint web part, but facing OAuth authentication issues. They need guidance on how to start a session for the correct user using the Appwrite API with the access token. Advice on whether the envisioned workaround is feasible and suggestions for alternative solutions are requested.
