The Microsoft Azure Entra ID provider allows authentication against an application created in the Azure management environment for i-net HelpDesk.

• An account at the Microsoft Azure Portal

• Login to your Microsoft Azure Portal Account
• Go to "App Registrations" in the sidebar or using the search
• Go to "New Registration"
• Register a new application
• The "Redirect URI (optional)" is important. It should be https://<External Visible URL>/login/azure, e.g.: https://<your-server:port>/login/azure or https://<your-server>/pdfc/default.aspx/login/azure (if IIS is used). The type is required to be "Web"

The Client ID is obtained from the overview page and is called Application (client) ID there.

After creating the Application you need to create client secrets:

• Go to "Certificates & secrets" in the sidebar
• Go to "New client secret"
• Enter requested information
• A new line will be generated in the table:
  • Copy the Value which is the Client Secret

In the configuration manager web interface, you need to enter the Client ID and Client Secret that you received from the Microsoft Azure Application OAuth App.

If your application's type is Single Tenant only, you have to add the tenants name in the configuration as well. Otherwise, leave it empty.

Groups and roles can be transferred to i-net HelpDesk from Azure. To accomplish this, a token configuration must be added to the application in Azure. Switch to the Token Configuration view and click on add group claim.

Now select which role type you would like to activate in the application. The type property has no relevance and can be left at the default value ID. Currently, you can only use the security groups, directory roles are not supported.
