Overview

This sample demonstrates a vanilla JavaScript single-page application (SPA) that lets users authenticate against Azure Active Directory B2C (Azure AD B2C) using the Microsoft Authentication Library for JavaScript (MSAL.js) and authorize them to call a web API that is also protected by Azure AD B2C. This sample also demonstrates sign-up/sign-in, password reset and profile edit user-flows.

Scenario

  1. The client application uses the MSAL.js to obtain an Access Token from Azure AD B2C.
  2. The Access Token is used as a bearer to authorize the user to call a protected web API.
  3. The protected web API responds with the name of the signed-in user.

Overview

If you like, you can take a quick look at the application before trying.

Contents

File/folder Description
App/authPopup.js Main authentication logic resides here (using popup flow).
App/authRedirect.js Use this instead of authPopup.js for authentication with redirect flow.
App/authConfig.js Contains configuration parameters for the sample.
App/apiConfig.js Contains web API scopes and coordinates.
App/policies.js Contains B2C custom policies and user-flows.

Prerequisites

  • Node.js must be installed to run this sample.
  • Visual Studio Code is recommended for running and editing this sample.
  • VS Code Azure Tools extension is recommended for interacting with Azure through VS Code Interface.
  • A modern web browser. This sample uses ES6 conventions and will not run on Internet Explorer.
  • An Azure AD B2C tenant. For more information, see: Create an Azure Active Directory B2C tenant
  • A user account in your Azure AD B2C tenant.

Setup

Step 1: Clone or download this repository

From your shell or command line:

git clone https://github.com/Azure-Samples/ms-identity-b2c-javascript-spa.git

or download and extract the repository .zip file.

⚠️ Given that the name of the sample is quite long, and so are the names of the referenced packages, you might want to clone it in a folder close to the root of your hard drive, to avoid maximum file path length limitations on Windows.

Step 2: Install project dependencies

    cd ms-identity-b2c-javascript-spa
    npm install

Registration

ℹ️ This sample comes with a pre-registered application for testing purposes. If you would like to use your own Azure AD B2C tenant and application, follow the steps below to register and configure the applications in the Azure Portal. Otherwise, continue with the steps for Running the sample.

Choose the Azure AD B2C tenant where you want to create your applications

As a first step you'll need to:

  1. Sign in to the Azure portal.
  2. If your account is present in more than one Azure AD B2C tenant, select your profile at the top right corner in the menu on top of the page, and then switch directory to change your portal session to the desired Azure AD B2C tenant.

Register the service app (Node.js web API)

ℹ️ This sample is calling a web API that is already protected by Azure AD B2C and hosted on Azure App Service. If you would like to setup and use your own web API, follow the instructions on Add a web API application and Configure scopes or see Node.js Web API with Azure AD B2C code sample.

Register the client app (JavaScript SPA)

  1. Navigate to the Microsoft identity platform for developers App registrations page.
  2. Select New registration.
  3. In the Register an application page that appears, enter your application's registration information:
    • In the Name section, enter a meaningful application name that will be displayed to users of the app, for example ms-identity-b2c-javascript-spa.
    • Under Supported account types, select Accounts in any organizational directory or any identity provider.
    • In the Redirect URI (optional) section, select Single-page application in the combo-box and enter the following redirect URI: http://localhost:6420.
  4. Select Register to create the application.
  5. In the app's registration screen, find and note the Application (client) ID. You use this value in your app's configuration file(s) later in your code.
  6. Select Save to save your changes.
  7. In the app's registration screen, click on the API Permissions blade in the left to open the page where we add access to the APIs that your application needs.
    • Click the Add a permission button and then,
    • Ensure that the My APIs tab is selected.
    • In the list of APIs, select the name of the API you've created during the Register the service app step.
    • In the Delegated permissions section, select the demo.read in the list. Use the search box if necessary.
    • Click on the Add permissions button at the bottom.
    • Click on the Grant admin consent button at the top.

Create User Flows

Please refer to: Tutorial: Create user flows in Azure Active Directory B2C

Add External Identity Providers

Please refer to: Tutorial: Add identity providers to your applications in Azure Active Directory B2C

Configure the app (JavaScript SPA) to use your app registration

Open the project in your IDE (like Visual Studio Code) to configure the code.

In the steps below, "ClientID" is the same as "Application ID" or "AppId".

Open the App\authConfig.js file. Then:

  1. Find the key clientId and replace the existing value with the application ID (clientId) of the ms-identity-b2c-javascript-spa application copied from the Azure portal.
  2. Find the key redirectUri and replace the existing value with the base address of the ms-identity-b2c-javascript-spa project (by default http://localhost:6420).

Open the App\policies.js file. Then:

  1. Find the key policies.names and replace it with the names (IDs) of your policies/user-flows e.g. b2c_1_susi_reset_v2.
  2. Find the key policies.authorities abd replace it with the authority strings of your policies/user-flows e.g. https://fabrikamb2c.b2clogin.com/fabrikamb2c.onmicrosoft.com/b2c_1_susi_reset_v2.
  3. Find the key policies.authorityDomain abd replace it with the domain of your authority e.g. fabrikamb2c.b2clogin.com.

Open the App\apiConfig.js file. Then:

  1. Find the key b2cScopes and replace the existing value with the scope of your web API (if you have followed the Tutorial: Node.js Web API with Azure AD B2C above, this is api://{your-web-apis-client-id}/demo.read).
  2. Find the key webAPI and replace the existing value with the coordinates of your web API (if you have followed the Tutorial: Node.js Web API with Azure AD B2C above, this is http://localhost:5000).

Running the sample

    cd ms-identity-b2c-javascript-spa
    npm start

Deployment

Deployment to Azure Storage

There is one single-page application in this sample. To deploy it to Azure Storage, you'll need to:

  • create an Azure Storage blob
  • build your project and upload it
  • update config files with website coordinates

If you are going to call a web API from a your deployed SPA, you'll also need to configure your web API's CORS setting accordingly (more on this below).

ℹ️ If you would like to use VS Code Azure Tools extension for deployment, watch the tutorial offered by Microsoft Docs.

Build and upload the ms-identity-b2c-javascript-spa to an Azure Storage blob

Build your project to get a distributable files folder, where your built html, css and javascript files will be generated. Then follow the steps below:

⚠️ When uploading, make sure you upload the contents of your distributable files folder and not the entire folder itself.

  1. Sign in to the Azure portal.
  2. Locate your storage account and display the account overview.
  3. Select Static website to display the configuration page for static websites.
  4. Select Enabled to enable static website hosting for the storage account.
  5. In the Index document name field, specify a default index page (For example: index.html).
  6. The default index page is displayed when a user navigates to the root of your static website.
  7. Click Save. The Azure portal now displays your static website endpoint. Make a note of the Primary endpoint field.
  8. In the ms-identity-b2c-javascript-spa project source code, update your configuration file with the Primary endpoint field as your new Redirect URI (you will register this URI later).
  9. Next, select Storage Explorer.
  10. Expand the BLOB CONTAINERS node, and then select the $web container.
  11. Choose the Upload button to upload files.
  12. If you intend for the browser to display the contents of file, make sure that the content type of that file is set to text/html.
  13. In the pane that appears beside the account overview page of your storage account, select Static Website. The URL of your site appears in the Primary endpoint field. In the next section, you will register this URI.

Update the Azure AD B2C app registration for ms-identity-b2c-javascript-spa

  1. Navigate back to to the Azure portal.
  2. In the left-hand navigation pane, select the Azure AD B2C service, and then select App registrations.
  3. In the resulting screen, select the ms-identity-b2c-javascript-spa application.
  4. Add the same URI in the list of values of the Authentication -> Redirect URIs menu. If you have multiple redirect URIs, make sure that there's a new entry using the Azure Storage's static website endpoint URI for each redirect URI.

CORS configuration for web API to allow calls from this SPA

Now you need to navigate to the Azure App Service Portal, and locate your web API there. Once you do, click on the CORS blade. There, add your deployed SPA's coordinates as an allowed domain:
