Answer 1

I just came across your question having run into the same error, so since nobody ever answered I figured I would post the answer I found. This error is related to the permissions set to be requested on the app in the Azure dashboard at https://manage.windowsazure.com.

If you go into your app configuration page and scroll to the bottom, you just need to add the corresponding items under the delegated permissions dropdown.

Answer 2

I got the same error. This is what fixed it for me:

1. Go to https://manage.windowsazure.com

2. Go to the corresponding app configuration page.

3. Scroll to the bottom to "permissions to other applications".

4. Add "Windows Azure Active Directory" application if it is not already there.

5. Under delegated permissions check "Enabled Sign-on and read user's profiles"
