This week, James is joined yet again by friend of the show Sr Cloud Developer Advocate Matt Soucoup, who shows us how to take the pain out of adding user accounts to your apps with Azure AD B2C. He tells us what that acronym stands for, walks us through the Azure portal to setup an Azure AD B2C tenant, and then demonstrates the awesome features that come along with AAB2C; such as social authentication and multi-factor authentication, customizing the login page your app displays when the user signs-in and using the MSAL library within your apps.

Video with excellent information, I take note for future conversations@MMcCarty: Thanks Mike! You cannot do that today with the MSAL library. It’s in the OAuth spec that the sign-in/up should be done through system web views. This way your app doesn’t ever get a hold of the user’s credentials… keeps the user’s secrets safe & your app doesn’t take on that responsibility either, let the OS handle it.
Great video guys. Question: What if I want to have my own custom Xamarin.Forms XAML page for Login, SignUp, etc. (rather than a custom HTML page). Can I still use any of this?
Thanks,
Mike =🙂
