This article explains how to use Microsoft Graph in Blazor WebAssembly apps, which enables apps to access Microsoft Cloud resources.

Two approaches are covered:

  • Graph SDK: The Microsoft Graph SDK simplifies building high-quality, efficient, and resilient apps that access Microsoft Graph. Select the Graph SDK button at the top of this article to adopt this approach.

  • Named HttpClient with Graph API: A named HttpClient can issue Microsoft Graph API requests directly to Microsoft Graph. Select the Named HttpClient with Graph API button at the top of this article to adopt this approach.

The guidance in this article isn't meant to replace the Microsoft Graph documentation and Azure security guidance in other Microsoft documentation sets. Assess the security guidance in the Additional resources section of this article before implementing Microsoft Graph in a production environment. Follow Microsoft's best practices to limit the vulnerabilities of your apps.

Additional approaches for working with Microsoft Graph and Blazor WebAssembly are provided by the following Microsoft Graph and Azure samples:

To provide feedback on either of the preceding two samples, open an issue on the sample's GitHub repository. If you're opening an issue for the Azure sample, provide a link to the sample in your opening comment because the Azure sample repository (Azure-Samples) contains many samples. Describe the problem in detail and include sample code as needed. Place a minimal app into GitHub that reproduces the problem or error. Be sure to remove Azure account configuration data from the sample before you commit it to the public repository.

To provide feedback or seek assistance with this article or ASP.NET Core, see ASP.NET Core Blazor fundamentals.

Important

The scenarios described in this article apply to using Microsoft Entra (ME-ID) as the identity provider, not AAD B2C. Using Microsoft Graph with a client-side Blazor WebAssembly app and the AAD B2C identity provider isn't supported at this time because the app would require a client secret, which can't be secured in the client-side Blazor app. For an AAD B2C standalone Blazor WebAssembly app use Graph API, create a backend server (web) API to access Graph API on behalf of users. The client-side app authenticates and authorizes users to call the web API to securely access Microsoft Graph and return data to the client-side Blazor app from your server-based web API. The client secret is safely maintained in the server-based web API, not in the Blazor app on the client. Never store a client secret in a client-side Blazor app.

Using a hosted Blazor WebAssembly app is supported, where the Server app uses the Graph SDK/API to provide Graph data to the Client app via web API. For more information, see the Hosted Blazor WebAssembly solutions section of this article.

The examples in this article take advantage of new .NET/C# features. When using the examples with .NET 7 or earlier, minor modifications are required. However, the text and code examples that pertain to interacting with Microsoft Graph are the same for all versions of ASP.NET Core.

The following guidance applies to Microsoft Graph v5.

The Microsoft Graph SDK for use in Blazor apps is called the Microsoft Graph .NET Client Library.

The Graph SDK examples require the following package references in the standalone Blazor WebAssembly app. The first two packages are already referenced if the app has been enabled for MSAL authentication, for example when creating the app by following the guidance in Secure an ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly standalone app with Microsoft Entra ID.

The Graph SDK examples require the following package references in the standalone Blazor WebAssembly app or the Client app of a hosted Blazor WebAssembly solution. The first two packages are already referenced if the app has been enabled for MSAL authentication, for example when creating the app by following the guidance in Secure an ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly standalone app with Microsoft Entra ID.

Note

For guidance on adding packages to .NET apps, see the articles under Install and manage packages at Package consumption workflow (NuGet documentation). Confirm correct package versions at NuGet.org.

In the Azure portal, grant delegated permissions (scopes)† for Microsoft Graph data that the app should be able to access on behalf of a user. For the example in this article, the app's registration should include delegated permission to read user data (Microsoft.Graph > User.Read scope in API permissions, Type: Delegated). The User.Read scope allows users to sign in to the app and allows the app to read the profile and company information of signed-in users. For more information, see Overview of permissions and consent in the Microsoft identity platform and Overview of Microsoft Graph permissions.

Permissions and scopes mean the same thing and are used interchangeably in security documentation and the Azure portal. Unless the text is referring to the Azure portal, this article uses scope/scopes when referring to Graph permissions.

Scopes are case insensitive, so User.Read is the same as user.read. Feel free to use either format, but we recommend a consistent choice across application code.

After adding the Microsoft Graph API scopes to the app's registration in the Azure portal, add the following app settings configuration to the wwwroot/appsettings.json file in the app, which includes the Graph base URL with the Microsoft Graph version and scopes. In the following example, the User.Read scope is specified for the examples in later sections of this article. Scopes aren't case sensitive.

"MicrosoftGraph": {
  "BaseUrl": "https://graph.microsoft.com",
  "Version": "{VERSION}",
  "Scopes": [
    "user.read"
  ]
}

In the preceding example, the {VERSION} placeholder is the version of the Microsoft Graph API (for example: v1.0).

The following is an example of a complete wwwroot/appsettings.json configuration file for an app that uses ME-ID as its identity provider, where reading user data (user.read scope) is specified for Microsoft Graph:

{
  "AzureAd": {
    "Authority": "https://login.microsoftonline.com/{TENANT ID}",
    "ClientId": "{CLIENT ID}",
    "ValidateAuthority": true
  },
  "MicrosoftGraph": {
    "BaseUrl": "https://graph.microsoft.com",
    "Version": "v1.0",
    "Scopes": [
      "user.read"
    ]
  }
}

In the preceding example, the {TENANT ID} placeholder is the Directory (tenant) ID, and the {CLIENT ID} placeholder is the Application (client) ID. For more information, see Secure an ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly standalone app with Microsoft Entra ID.

Add the following GraphClientExtensions class to the standalone app. The scopes are provided to the Scopes property of the AccessTokenRequestOptions in the AuthenticateRequestAsync method.

Add the following GraphClientExtensions class to the standalone app or Client app of a hosted Blazor WebAssembly solution. The scopes are provided to the Scopes property of the AccessTokenRequestOptions in the AuthenticateRequestAsync method.

When an access token isn't obtained, the following code doesn't set a Bearer authorization header for Graph requests.

GraphClientExtensions.cs:

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication;
using Microsoft.Authentication.WebAssembly.Msal.Models;
using Microsoft.Graph;
using Microsoft.Kiota.Abstractions;
using Microsoft.Kiota.Abstractions.Authentication;
using IAccessTokenProvider = 
    Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication.IAccessTokenProvider;

namespace BlazorSample;

internal static class GraphClientExtensions
{
    public static IServiceCollection AddGraphClient(
            this IServiceCollection services, string? baseUrl, List<string>? scopes)
    {
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(baseUrl) || scopes?.Count == 0)
        {
            return services;
        }

        services.Configure<RemoteAuthenticationOptions<MsalProviderOptions>>(
            options =>
            {
                scopes?.ForEach((scope) =>
                {
                    options.ProviderOptions.DefaultAccessTokenScopes.Add(scope);
                });
            });

        services.AddScoped<IAuthenticationProvider, GraphAuthenticationProvider>();

        services.AddScoped(sp =>
        {
            return new GraphServiceClient(
                new HttpClient(),
                sp.GetRequiredService<IAuthenticationProvider>(),
                baseUrl);
        });

        return services;
    }

    private class GraphAuthenticationProvider(IAccessTokenProvider tokenProvider, 
        IConfiguration config) : IAuthenticationProvider
    {
        private readonly IConfiguration config = config;

        public IAccessTokenProvider TokenProvider { get; } = tokenProvider;

        public async Task AuthenticateRequestAsync(RequestInformation request, 
            Dictionary<string, object>? additionalAuthenticationContext = null, 
            CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
        {
            var result = await TokenProvider.RequestAccessToken(
                new AccessTokenRequestOptions()
                {
                    Scopes = 
                        config.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph:Scopes").Get<string[]>() ??
                        [ "user.read" ]
                });

            if (result.TryGetToken(out var token))
            {
                request.Headers.Add("Authorization", 
                    $"{CoreConstants.Headers.Bearer} {token.Value}");
            }
        }
    }
}

Important

See the DefaultAccessTokenScopes versus AdditionalScopesToConsent section for an explanation on why the preceding code uses DefaultAccessTokenScopes to add the scopes rather than AdditionalScopesToConsent.

In the Program file, add the Graph client services and configuration with the AddGraphClient extension method. The following code defaults to the Version 1.0 Microsoft Graph base address and User.Read scopes if these settings aren't found in the app settings file:

var baseUrl = string.Join("/",
    builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["BaseUrl"] ??
        "https://graph.microsoft.com",
    builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["Version"] ??
        "v1.0");
var scopes = builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph:Scopes")
    .Get<List<string>>() ?? [ "user.read" ];

builder.Services.AddGraphClient(baseUrl, scopes);

Call Graph API from a component using the Graph SDK

The following UserData component uses an injected GraphServiceClient to obtain the user's ME-ID profile data and display their mobile phone number.

For any test user that you create in ME-ID, make sure that you give the user's ME-ID profile a mobile phone number in the Azure portal.

UserData.razor:

@page "/user-data"
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization
@using Microsoft.Graph
@attribute [Authorize]
@inject GraphServiceClient Client

<PageTitle>User Data</PageTitle>

<h1>Microsoft Graph User Data</h1>

@if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(user?.MobilePhone))
{
    <p>Mobile Phone: @user.MobilePhone</p>
}

@code {
    private Microsoft.Graph.Models.User? user;

    protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
    {
        user = await Client.Me.GetAsync();
    }
}

Add a link to the component's page in the NavMenu component (Layout/NavMenu.razor):

<div class="nav-item px-3">
    <NavLink class="nav-link" href="user-data">
        <span class="bi bi-list-nested-nav-menu" aria-hidden="true"></span> User Data
    </NavLink>
</div>

Tip

To add users to an app, see the Assign users to an app registration with or without app roles section.

When testing with the Graph SDK locally, we recommend using a new InPrivate/incognito browser session for each test to prevent lingering cookies from interfering with tests. For more information, see Secure an ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly standalone app with Microsoft Entra ID.

Customize user claims using the Graph SDK

In the following example, the app creates mobile phone number and office location claims for a user from their ME-ID user profile's data. The app must have the User.Read Graph API scope configured in ME-ID. Any test users for this scenario must have a mobile phone number and office location in their ME-ID profile, which can be added via the Azure portal.

In the following custom user account factory:

  • An ILogger (logger) is included for convenience in case you wish to log information or errors in the CreateUserAsync method.
  • In the event that an AccessTokenNotAvailableException is thrown, the user is redirected to the identity provider to sign into their account. Additional or different actions can be taken when requesting an access token fails. For example, the app can log the AccessTokenNotAvailableException and create a support ticket for further investigation.
  • The framework's RemoteUserAccount represents the user's account. If the app requires a custom user account class that extends RemoteUserAccount, swap your custom user account class for RemoteUserAccount in the following code.

CustomAccountFactory.cs:

using System.Security.Claims;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication.Internal;
using Microsoft.Graph;
using Microsoft.Kiota.Abstractions.Authentication;

public class CustomAccountFactory(IAccessTokenProviderAccessor accessor,
        IServiceProvider serviceProvider, ILogger<CustomAccountFactory> logger,
        IConfiguration config) 
    : AccountClaimsPrincipalFactory<RemoteUserAccount>(accessor)
{
    private readonly ILogger<CustomAccountFactory> logger = logger;
    private readonly IServiceProvider serviceProvider = serviceProvider;
    private readonly string? baseUrl = string.Join("/",
        config.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["BaseUrl"] ?? 
            "https://graph.microsoft.com",
        config.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["Version"] ??
            "v1.0");

    public override async ValueTask<ClaimsPrincipal> CreateUserAsync(
        RemoteUserAccount account,
        RemoteAuthenticationUserOptions options)
    {
        var initialUser = await base.CreateUserAsync(account, options);

        if (initialUser.Identity is not null &&
            initialUser.Identity.IsAuthenticated)
        {
            var userIdentity = initialUser.Identity as ClaimsIdentity;

            if (userIdentity is not null && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(baseUrl))
            {
                try
                {
                    var client = new GraphServiceClient(
                        new HttpClient(),
                        serviceProvider
                            .GetRequiredService<IAuthenticationProvider>(),
                        baseUrl);

                    var user = await client.Me.GetAsync();

                    if (user is not null)
                    {
                        userIdentity.AddClaim(new Claim("mobilephone",
                            user.MobilePhone ?? "(000) 000-0000"));
                        userIdentity.AddClaim(new Claim("officelocation",
                            user.OfficeLocation ?? "Not set"));
                    }
                }
                catch (AccessTokenNotAvailableException exception)
                {
                    exception.Redirect();
                }
            }
        }

        return initialUser;
    }
}

Configure the MSAL authentication to use the custom user account factory.

Confirm that the Program file uses the Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication namespace:

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication;

The example in this section builds on the approach of reading the base URL with version and scopes from app configuration via the MicrosoftGraph section in wwwroot/appsettings.json file. The following lines should already be present in the Program file from following the guidance earlier in this article:

var baseUrl = string.Join("/",
    builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["BaseUrl"] ??
        "https://graph.microsoft.com",
    builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["Version"] ??
        "v1.0");
var scopes = builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph:Scopes")
    .Get<List<string>>() ?? [ "user.read" ];

builder.Services.AddGraphClient(baseUrl, scopes);

In the Program file, find the call to the AddMsalAuthentication extension method. Update the code to the following, which includes a call to AddAccountClaimsPrincipalFactory that adds an account claims principal factory with the CustomAccountFactory.

If the app uses a custom user account class that extends RemoteUserAccount, swap the custom user account class for RemoteUserAccount in the following code.

builder.Services.AddMsalAuthentication<RemoteAuthenticationState,
    RemoteUserAccount>(options =>
    {
        builder.Configuration.Bind("AzureAd", 
            options.ProviderOptions.Authentication);
    })
    .AddAccountClaimsPrincipalFactory<RemoteAuthenticationState, RemoteUserAccount,
        CustomAccountFactory>();

You can use the following UserClaims component to study the user's claims after the user authenticates with ME-ID:

UserClaims.razor:

@page "/user-claims"
@using System.Security.Claims
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization
@attribute [Authorize]
@inject AuthenticationStateProvider AuthenticationStateProvider

<h1>User Claims</h1>

@if (claims.Any())
{
    <ul>
        @foreach (var claim in claims)
        {
            <li>@claim.Type: @claim.Value</li>
        }
    </ul>
}
else
{
    <p>No claims found.</p>
}

@code {
    private IEnumerable<Claim> claims = Enumerable.Empty<Claim>();

    protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
    {
        var authState = await AuthenticationStateProvider
            .GetAuthenticationStateAsync();
        var user = authState.User;

        claims = user.Claims;
    }
}

Add a link to the component's page in the NavMenu component (Layout/NavMenu.razor):

<div class="nav-item px-3">
    <NavLink class="nav-link" href="user-claims">
        <span class="bi bi-list-nested-nav-menu" aria-hidden="true"></span> User Claims
    </NavLink>
</div>

When testing with the Graph SDK locally, we recommend using a new InPrivate/incognito browser session for each test to prevent lingering cookies from interfering with tests. For more information, see Secure an ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly standalone app with Microsoft Entra ID.

The following guidance applies to Microsoft Graph v4. If you're upgrading an app from SDK v4 to v5, see the Microsoft Graph .NET SDK v5 changelog and upgrade guide.

The Microsoft Graph SDK for use in Blazor apps is called the Microsoft Graph .NET Client Library.

The Graph SDK examples require the following package references in the standalone Blazor WebAssembly app. The first two packages are already referenced if the app has been enabled for MSAL authentication, for example when creating the app by following the guidance in Secure an ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly standalone app with Microsoft Entra ID.

The Graph SDK examples require the following package references in the standalone Blazor WebAssembly app or the Client app of a hosted Blazor WebAssembly solution. The first two packages are already referenced if the app has been enabled for MSAL authentication, for example when creating the app by following the guidance in Secure an ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly standalone app with Microsoft Entra ID.

Note

For guidance on adding packages to .NET apps, see the articles under Install and manage packages at Package consumption workflow (NuGet documentation). Confirm correct package versions at NuGet.org.

In the Azure portal, grant delegated permissions (scopes)† for Microsoft Graph data that the app should be able to access on behalf of a user. For the example in this article, the app's registration should include delegated permission to read user data (Microsoft.Graph > User.Read scope in API permissions, Type: Delegated). The User.Read scope allows users to sign in to the app and allows the app to read the profile and company information of signed-in users. For more information, see Overview of permissions and consent in the Microsoft identity platform and Overview of Microsoft Graph permissions.

Permissions and scopes mean the same thing and are used interchangeably in security documentation and the Azure portal. Unless the text is referring to the Azure portal, this article uses scope/scopes when referring to Graph permissions.

Scopes are case insensitive, so User.Read is the same as user.read. Feel free to use either format, but we recommend a consistent choice across application code.

After adding the Microsoft Graph API scopes to the app's registration in the Azure portal, add the following app settings configuration to the wwwroot/appsettings.json file in the app, which includes the Graph base URL with the Microsoft Graph version and scopes. In the following example, the User.Read scope is specified for the examples in later sections of this article. Scopes aren't case sensitive.

"MicrosoftGraph": {
  "BaseUrl": "https://graph.microsoft.com",
  "Version": "{VERSION}",
  "Scopes": [
    "user.read"
  ]
}

In the preceding example, the {VERSION} placeholder is the version of the Microsoft Graph API (for example: v1.0).

The following is an example of a complete wwwroot/appsettings.json configuration file for an app that uses ME-ID as its identity provider, where reading user data (user.read scope) is specified for Microsoft Graph:

{
  "AzureAd": {
    "Authority": "https://login.microsoftonline.com/{TENANT ID}",
    "ClientId": "{CLIENT ID}",
    "ValidateAuthority": true
  },
  "MicrosoftGraph": {
    "BaseUrl": "https://graph.microsoft.com",
    "Version": "v1.0",
    "Scopes": [
      "user.read"
    ]
  }
}

In the preceding example, the {TENANT ID} placeholder is the Directory (tenant) ID, and the {CLIENT ID} placeholder is the Application (client) ID. For more information, see Secure an ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly standalone app with Microsoft Entra ID.

Add the following GraphClientExtensions class to the standalone app. The scopes are provided to the Scopes property of the AccessTokenRequestOptions in the AuthenticateRequestAsync method. The IHttpProvider.OverallTimeout is extended from the default value of 100 seconds to 300 seconds to give the HttpClient more time to receive a response from Microsoft Graph.

Add the following GraphClientExtensions class to the standalone app or Client app of a hosted Blazor WebAssembly solution. The scopes are provided to the Scopes property of the AccessTokenRequestOptions in the AuthenticateRequestAsync method. The IHttpProvider.OverallTimeout is extended from the default value of 100 seconds to 300 seconds to give the HttpClient more time to receive a response from Microsoft Graph.

When an access token isn't obtained, the following code doesn't set a Bearer authorization header for Graph requests.

GraphClientExtensions.cs:

using System.Net.Http.Headers;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication;
using Microsoft.Authentication.WebAssembly.Msal.Models;
using Microsoft.Graph;

                sp.GetRequiredService<IHttpProvider>());
        });

        return services;
    }

    private class GraphAuthenticationProvider(IAccessTokenProvider tokenProvider, 
        IConfiguration config) : IAuthenticationProvider

            {
                request.Headers.Authorization ??= new AuthenticationHeaderValue(
                    "Bearer", token.Value);
            }
        }
    }

    private class HttpClientHttpProvider(HttpClient client) : IHttpProvider
    {
        private readonly HttpClient client = client;

        public ISerializer Serializer { get; } = new Serializer();

        public TimeSpan OverallTimeout { get; set; } = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(300);

        public Task<HttpResponseMessage> SendAsync(HttpRequestMessage request)
        {
            return client.SendAsync(request);
        }

        public Task<HttpResponseMessage> SendAsync(HttpRequestMessage request,
            HttpCompletionOption completionOption,
            CancellationToken cancellationToken)
        {
            return client.SendAsync(request, completionOption, cancellationToken);
        }

        public void Dispose()
        {
        }
    }
}

Important

See the DefaultAccessTokenScopes versus AdditionalScopesToConsent section for an explanation on why the preceding code uses DefaultAccessTokenScopes to add the scopes rather than AdditionalScopesToConsent.

In the Program file, add the Graph client services and configuration with the AddGraphClient extension method:

var baseUrl = string.Join("/",
    builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["BaseUrl"] ??
        "https://graph.microsoft.com",
    builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["Version"] ??
        "v1.0");
var scopes = builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph:Scopes")
    .Get<List<string>>() ?? [ "user.read" ];

builder.Services.AddGraphClient(baseUrl, scopes);

Call Graph API from a component using the Graph SDK

The following UserData component uses an injected GraphServiceClient to obtain the user's ME-ID profile data and display their mobile phone number. For any test user that you create in ME-ID, make sure that you give the user's ME-ID profile a mobile phone number in the Azure portal.

UserData.razor:

@page "/user-data"
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization
@using Microsoft.Graph
@attribute [Authorize]
@inject GraphServiceClient Client

<PageTitle>User Data</PageTitle>

<h1>Microsoft Graph User Data</h1>

@if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(user?.MobilePhone))
{
    <p>Mobile Phone: @user.MobilePhone</p>
}

@code {
    private Microsoft.Graph.User? user;

    protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
    {
        var request = Client.Me.Request();
        user = await request.GetAsync();
    }
}

Add a link to the component's page in the NavMenu component (Layout/NavMenu.razor):

<div class="nav-item px-3">
    <NavLink class="nav-link" href="user-data">
        <span class="bi bi-list-nested-nav-menu" aria-hidden="true"></span> User Data
    </NavLink>
</div>

Tip

To add users to an app, see the Assign users to an app registration with or without app roles section.

When testing with the Graph SDK locally, we recommend using a new InPrivate/incognito browser session for each test to prevent lingering cookies from interfering with tests. For more information, see Secure an ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly standalone app with Microsoft Entra ID.

Customize user claims using the Graph SDK

In the following example, the app creates mobile phone number and office location claims for a user from their ME-ID user profile's data. The app must have the User.Read Graph API scope configured in ME-ID. Any test users for this scenario must have a mobile phone number and office location in their ME-ID profile, which can be added via the Azure portal.

In the following custom user account factory:

  • An ILogger (logger) is included for convenience in case you wish to log information or errors in the CreateUserAsync method.
  • In the event that an AccessTokenNotAvailableException is thrown, the user is redirected to the identity provider to sign into their account. Additional or different actions can be taken when requesting an access token fails. For example, the app can log the AccessTokenNotAvailableException and create a support ticket for further investigation.
  • The framework's RemoteUserAccount represents the user's account. If the app requires a custom user account class that extends RemoteUserAccount, swap your custom user account class for RemoteUserAccount in the following code.

CustomAccountFactory.cs:

using System.Security.Claims;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication.Internal;
using Microsoft.Graph;

public class CustomAccountFactory(IAccessTokenProviderAccessor accessor, 
        IServiceProvider serviceProvider, ILogger<CustomAccountFactory> logger)
    : AccountClaimsPrincipalFactory<RemoteUserAccount>(accessor)
{
    private readonly ILogger<CustomAccountFactory> logger = logger;
    private readonly IServiceProvider serviceProvider = serviceProvider;

    public override async ValueTask<ClaimsPrincipal> CreateUserAsync(
        RemoteUserAccount account,
        RemoteAuthenticationUserOptions options)
    {
        var initialUser = await base.CreateUserAsync(account, options);

        if (initialUser.Identity is not null && 
            initialUser.Identity.IsAuthenticated)
        {
            var userIdentity = initialUser.Identity as ClaimsIdentity;

            if (userIdentity is not null)
            {
                try
                {
                    var client = ActivatorUtilities
                        .CreateInstance<GraphServiceClient>(serviceProvider);
                    var request = client.Me.Request();
                    var user = await request.GetAsync();

                    if (user is not null)
                    {
                        userIdentity.AddClaim(new Claim("mobilephone",
                            user.MobilePhone ?? "(000) 000-0000"));
                        userIdentity.AddClaim(new Claim("officelocation",
                            user.OfficeLocation ?? "Not set"));
                    }
                }
                catch (AccessTokenNotAvailableException exception)
                {
                    exception.Redirect();
                }
            }
        }

        return initialUser;
    }
}

Configure the MSAL authentication to use the custom user account factory.

Confirm that the Program file uses the Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication namespace:

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication;

The example in this section builds on the approach of reading the base URL with version and scopes from app configuration via the MicrosoftGraph section in wwwroot/appsettings.json file. The following lines should already be present in the Program file from following the guidance earlier in this article:

var baseUrl = string.Join("/",
    builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["BaseUrl"] ??
        "https://graph.microsoft.com",
    builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["Version"] ??
        "v1.0");
var scopes = builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph:Scopes")
    .Get<List<string>>() ?? [ "user.read" ];

builder.Services.AddGraphClient(baseUrl, scopes);

In the Program file, find the call to the AddMsalAuthentication extension method. Update the code to the following, which includes a call to AddAccountClaimsPrincipalFactory that adds an account claims principal factory with the CustomAccountFactory.

If the app uses a custom user account class that extends RemoteUserAccount, swap the custom user account class for RemoteUserAccount in the following code.

builder.Services.AddMsalAuthentication<RemoteAuthenticationState,
    RemoteUserAccount>(options =>
    {
        builder.Configuration.Bind("AzureAd", 
            options.ProviderOptions.Authentication);
    })
    .AddAccountClaimsPrincipalFactory<RemoteAuthenticationState, RemoteUserAccount,
        CustomAccountFactory>();

You can use the following UserClaims component to study the user's claims after the user authenticates with ME-ID:

UserClaims.razor:

@page "/user-claims"
@using System.Security.Claims
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization
@attribute [Authorize]
@inject AuthenticationStateProvider AuthenticationStateProvider

<h1>User Claims</h1>

@if (claims.Any())
{
    <ul>
        @foreach (var claim in claims)
        {
            <li>@claim.Type: @claim.Value</li>
        }
    </ul>
}
else
{
    <p>No claims found.</p>
}

@code {
    private IEnumerable<Claim> claims = Enumerable.Empty<Claim>();

    protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
    {
        var authState = await AuthenticationStateProvider
            .GetAuthenticationStateAsync();
        var user = authState.User;

        claims = user.Claims;
    }
}

Add a link to the component's page in the NavMenu component (Layout/NavMenu.razor):

<div class="nav-item px-3">
    <NavLink class="nav-link" href="user-claims">
        <span class="bi bi-list-nested-nav-menu" aria-hidden="true"></span> User Claims
    </NavLink>
</div>

When testing with the Graph SDK locally, we recommend using a new InPrivate/incognito browser session for each test to prevent lingering cookies from interfering with tests. For more information, see Secure an ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly standalone app with Microsoft Entra ID.

The following examples use a named HttpClient for Graph API calls to obtain a user's mobile phone number to process a call or to customize a user's claims to include a mobile phone number claim and an office location claim.

The examples require a package reference for Microsoft.Extensions.Http for the standalone Blazor WebAssembly app.

The examples require a package reference for Microsoft.Extensions.Http for the standalone Blazor WebAssembly app or the Client app of a hosted Blazor WebAssembly solution.

Note

For guidance on adding packages to .NET apps, see the articles under Install and manage packages at Package consumption workflow (NuGet documentation). Confirm correct package versions at NuGet.org.

In the Azure portal, grant delegated permissions (scopes)† for Microsoft Graph data that the app should be able to access on behalf of a user. For the example in this article, the app's registration should include delegated permission to read user data (Microsoft.Graph > User.Read scope in API permissions, Type: Delegated). The User.Read scope allows users to sign in to the app and allows the app to read the profile and company information of signed-in users. For more information, see Overview of permissions and consent in the Microsoft identity platform and Overview of Microsoft Graph permissions.

Permissions and scopes mean the same thing and are used interchangeably in security documentation and the Azure portal. Unless the text is referring to the Azure portal, this article uses scope/scopes when referring to Graph permissions.

Scopes are case insensitive, so User.Read is the same as user.read. Feel free to use either format, but we recommend a consistent choice across application code.

After adding the Microsoft Graph API scopes to the app's registration in the Azure portal, add the following app settings configuration to the wwwroot/appsettings.json file in the app, which includes the Graph base URL with the Microsoft Graph version and scopes. In the following example, the User.Read scope is specified for the examples in later sections of this article. Scopes aren't case sensitive.

"MicrosoftGraph": {
  "BaseUrl": "https://graph.microsoft.com",
  "Version": "{VERSION}",
  "Scopes": [
    "user.read"
  ]
}

In the preceding example, the {VERSION} placeholder is the version of the Microsoft Graph API (for example: v1.0).

The following is an example of a complete wwwroot/appsettings.json configuration file for an app that uses ME-ID as its identity provider, where reading user data (user.read scope) is specified for Microsoft Graph:

{
  "AzureAd": {
    "Authority": "https://login.microsoftonline.com/{TENANT ID}",
    "ClientId": "{CLIENT ID}",
    "ValidateAuthority": true
  },
  "MicrosoftGraph": {
    "BaseUrl": "https://graph.microsoft.com",
    "Version": "v1.0",
    "Scopes": [
      "user.read"
    ]
  }
}

In the preceding example, the {TENANT ID} placeholder is the Directory (tenant) ID, and the {CLIENT ID} placeholder is the Application (client) ID. For more information, see Secure an ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly standalone app with Microsoft Entra ID.

Create the following GraphAuthorizationMessageHandler class and project configuration in the Program file for working with Graph API. The base URL and scopes are provided to the handler from configuration.

GraphAuthorizationMessageHandler.cs:

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication;

namespace BlazorSample;

public class GraphAuthorizationMessageHandler : AuthorizationMessageHandler
{
    public GraphAuthorizationMessageHandler(IAccessTokenProvider provider,
        NavigationManager navigation, IConfiguration config)
        : base(provider, navigation)
    {
        ConfigureHandler(
            authorizedUrls: [ 
                string.Join("/",
                    config.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["BaseUrl"] ??
                        "https://graph.microsoft.com",
                    config.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["Version"] ??
                        "v1.0")
            ],
            scopes: config.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph:Scopes")
                        .Get<List<string>>() ?? [ "user.read" ]);
    }
}

The trailing slash (/) of the authorized URL is required. The preceding code builds the following authorized URL from app settings configuration or defaults to the following authorized URL if the app settings configuration is missing: https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/.

In the Program file, configure the named HttpClient for Graph API:

builder.Services.AddTransient<GraphAuthorizationMessageHandler>();

builder.Services.AddHttpClient("GraphAPI",
        client => client.BaseAddress = new Uri(
            string.Join("/",
                builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["BaseUrl"] ??
                    "https://graph.microsoft.com",
                builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph")["Version"] ??
                    "v1.0",
                string.Empty)))
    .AddHttpMessageHandler<GraphAuthorizationMessageHandler>();

In the preceding example, the GraphAuthorizationMessageHandler DelegatingHandler is registered as a transient service for AddHttpMessageHandler. Transient registration is recommended for IHttpClientFactory, which manages its own DI scopes. For more information, see the following resources:

A trailing slash (/) on the base address is required. In the preceding code, the third argument to string.Join is string.Empty to ensure the trailing slash is present: https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/.

Call Graph API from a component using a named HttpClient

The UserInfo.cs class designates the required user profile properties with the JsonPropertyNameAttribute attribute and the JSON name used by ME-ID. The following example sets up properties for the user's mobile phone number and office location.

UserInfo.cs:

using System.Text.Json.Serialization;

namespace BlazorSample;

public class UserInfo
{
    [JsonPropertyName("mobilePhone")]
    public string? MobilePhone { get; set; }

    [JsonPropertyName("officeLocation")]
    public string? OfficeLocation { get; set; }
}

In the following UserData component, an HttpClient is created for Graph API to issue a request for the user's profile data. The me resource (me) are added to the base URL with version for the Graph API request. JSON data returned by Graph is deserialized into the UserInfo class properties. In the following example, the mobile phone number is obtained. You can add similar code to include the user's ME-ID profile office location if you wish (userInfo.OfficeLocation). If the access token request fails, the user is redirected to sign into the app for a new access token.

UserData.razor:

@page "/user-data"
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication
@attribute [Authorize]
@inject IConfiguration Config
@inject IHttpClientFactory ClientFactory

<PageTitle>User Data</PageTitle>

<h1>Microsoft Graph User Data</h1>

@if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(userInfo?.MobilePhone))
{
    <p>Mobile Phone: @userInfo.MobilePhone</p>
}

@code {
    private UserInfo? userInfo;

    protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
    {
        try
        {
            var client = ClientFactory.CreateClient("GraphAPI");

            userInfo = await client.GetFromJsonAsync<UserInfo>("me");
        }
        catch (AccessTokenNotAvailableException exception)
        {
            exception.Redirect();
        }
    }
}

Add a link to the component's page in the NavMenu component (Layout/NavMenu.razor):

<div class="nav-item px-3">
    <NavLink class="nav-link" href="user-data">
        <span class="bi bi-list-nested-nav-menu" aria-hidden="true"></span> User Data
    </NavLink>
</div>

Tip

To add users to an app, see the Assign users to an app registration with or without app roles section.

The following sequence describes the new user flow for Graph API scopes:

  1. The new user signs into the app for the first time.
  2. The user consents to using the app in the Azure consent UI.
  3. The user accesses a component page that requests Graph API data for the first time.
  4. The user is redirected to the Azure consent UI to consent to Graph API scopes.
  5. Graph API user data is returned.

If you prefer that scope provisioning (consent for Graph API scopes) take place on the initial sign in, supply the scopes to MSAL authentication as default access token scopes in the Program file:

+ var scopes = builder.Configuration.GetSection("MicrosoftGraph:Scopes")
+     .Get<List<string>>() ?? [ "user.read" ];

builder.Services.AddMsalAuthentication(options =>
{
    builder.Configuration.Bind("AzureAd", options.ProviderOptions.Authentication);

+   foreach (var scope in scopes)
+   {
+       options.ProviderOptions.DefaultAccessTokenScopes.Add(scope);
+   }
});

Important

See the DefaultAccessTokenScopes versus AdditionalScopesToConsent section for an explanation on why the preceding code uses DefaultAccessTokenScopes to add the scopes rather than AdditionalScopesToConsent.

When the preceding changes are made to the app, the user flow adopts the following sequence:

  1. The new user signs into the app for the first time.
  2. The user consents to using the app and Graph API scopes in the Azure consent UI.
  3. The user accesses a component page that requests Graph API data for the first time.
  4. Graph API user data is returned.

When testing with the Graph API locally, we recommend using a new InPrivate/incognito browser session for each test to prevent lingering cookies from interfering with testing. For more information, see Secure an ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly standalone app with Microsoft Entra ID.

Customize user claims using a named HttpClient

In the following example, the app creates mobile phone number and office location claims for the user from their ME-ID user profile's data. The app must have the User.Read Graph API scope configured in ME-ID. Test user accounts in ME-ID require an entry for the mobile phone number and office location, which can be added via the Azure portal to their user profiles.

If you haven't already added the UserInfo class to the app by following the guidance earlier in this article, add the following class and designate the required user profile properties with the JsonPropertyNameAttribute attribute and the JSON name used by ME-ID. The following example sets up properties for the user's mobile phone number and office location.

UserInfo.cs:

using System.Text.Json.Serialization;

namespace BlazorSample;

public class UserInfo
{
    [JsonPropertyName("mobilePhone")]
    public string? MobilePhone { get; set; }

    [JsonPropertyName("officeLocation")]
    public string? OfficeLocation { get; set; }
}

In the following custom user account factory:

  • An ILogger (logger) is included for convenience in case you wish to log information or errors in the CreateUserAsync method.
  • In the event that an AccessTokenNotAvailableException is thrown, the user is redirected to the identity provider to sign into their account. Additional or different actions can be taken when requesting an access token fails. For example, the app can log the AccessTokenNotAvailableException and create a support ticket for further investigation.
  • The framework's RemoteUserAccount represents the user's account. If the app requires a custom user account class that extends RemoteUserAccount, swap the custom user account class for RemoteUserAccount in the following code.

CustomAccountFactory.cs:

using System.Net.Http.Json;
using System.Security.Claims;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication.Internal;

public class CustomAccountFactory(IAccessTokenProviderAccessor accessor,
        IHttpClientFactory clientFactory,
        ILogger<CustomAccountFactory> logger)
    : AccountClaimsPrincipalFactory<RemoteUserAccount>(accessor)
{
    private readonly ILogger<CustomAccountFactory> logger = logger;
    private readonly IHttpClientFactory clientFactory = clientFactory;

    public override async ValueTask<ClaimsPrincipal> CreateUserAsync(
        RemoteUserAccount account,
        RemoteAuthenticationUserOptions options)
    {
        var initialUser = await base.CreateUserAsync(account, options);

        if (initialUser.Identity is not null && 
            initialUser.Identity.IsAuthenticated)
        {
            var userIdentity = initialUser.Identity as ClaimsIdentity;

            if (userIdentity is not null)
            {
                try
                {
                    var client = clientFactory.CreateClient("GraphAPI");

                    var userInfo = await client.GetFromJsonAsync<UserInfo>("me");

                    if (userInfo is not null)
                    {
                        userIdentity.AddClaim(new Claim("mobilephone",
                            userInfo.MobilePhone ?? "(000) 000-0000"));
                        userIdentity.AddClaim(new Claim("officelocation",
                            userInfo.OfficeLocation ?? "Not set"));
                    }
                }
                catch (AccessTokenNotAvailableException exception)
                {
                    exception.Redirect();
                }
            }
        }

        return initialUser;
    }
}

The MSAL authentication is configured to use the custom user account factory. Start by confirming that the Program file uses the Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication namespace:

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Authentication;

In the Program file, find the call to the AddMsalAuthentication extension method. Update the code to the following, which includes a call to AddAccountClaimsPrincipalFactory that adds an account claims principal factory with the CustomAccountFactory.

If the app uses a custom user account class that extends RemoteUserAccount, swap your app's custom user account class for RemoteUserAccount in the following code.

builder.Services.AddMsalAuthentication<RemoteAuthenticationState, 
    RemoteUserAccount>(options =>
    {
        builder.Configuration.Bind("AzureAd", 
            options.ProviderOptions.Authentication);
    })
    .AddAccountClaimsPrincipalFactory<RemoteAuthenticationState, RemoteUserAccount, 
        CustomAccountFactory>();

The preceding example is for an app that uses ME-ID authentication with MSAL. Similar patterns exist for OIDC and API authentication. For more information, see the examples in the Customize the user with a payload claim section of the ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly additional security scenarios article.

You can use the following UserClaims component to study the user's claims after the user authenticates with ME-ID:

UserClaims.razor:

@page "/user-claims"
@using System.Security.Claims
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization
@attribute [Authorize]
@inject AuthenticationStateProvider AuthenticationStateProvider

<h1>User Claims</h1>

@if (claims.Any())
{
    <ul>
        @foreach (var claim in claims)
        {
            <li>@claim.Type: @claim.Value</li>
        }
    </ul>
}
else
{
    <p>No claims found.</p>
}

@code {
    private IEnumerable<Claim> claims = Enumerable.Empty<Claim>();

    protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
    {
        var authState = await AuthenticationStateProvider
            .GetAuthenticationStateAsync();
        var user = authState.User;

        claims = user.Claims;
    }
}

Add a link to the component's page in the NavMenu component (Layout/NavMenu.razor):

<div class="nav-item px-3">
    <NavLink class="nav-link" href="user-claims">
        <span class="bi bi-list-nested-nav-menu" aria-hidden="true"></span> User Claims
    </NavLink>
</div>

When testing with the Graph API locally, we recommend using a new InPrivate/incognito browser session for each test to prevent lingering cookies from interfering with testing. For more information, see Secure an ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly standalone app with Microsoft Entra ID.

Assign users to an app registration with or without app roles

You can add users to an app registration and assign roles to users with the following steps in the Azure portal.

To add a user, select Users from the ME-ID area of the Azure portal:

  1. Select New user > Create new user.
  2. Use the Create user template.
  3. Supply the user's information in the Identity area.
  4. You can generate an initial password or assign an initial password that the user changes when they sign in for the first time. If you use the password generated by the portal, make a note of it now.
  5. Select Create to create the user. When Create new user interface closes, select Refresh to update the user list and show the new user.
  6. For the examples in this article, assign a mobile phone number to the new user by selecting their name from the users list, selecting Properties, and editing the contact information to provide a mobile phone number.

To assign users to the app without app roles:

  1. In the ME-ID area of the Azure portal, open Enterprise applications.
  2. Select the app from the list.
  3. Select Users and groups.
  4. Select Add user/group.
  5. Select a user.
  6. Select the Assign button.

To assign users to the app with app roles:

  1. Add roles to the app's registration in the Azure portal following the guidance in ASP.NET Core Blazor WebAssembly with Microsoft Entra ID groups and roles.
  2. In the ME-ID area of the Azure portal, open Enterprise applications.
  3. Select the app from the list.
  4. Select Users and groups.
  5. Select Add user/group.
  6. Select a user and select their role for accessing the app. Multiple roles are assigned to a user by repeating the process of adding the user to the app until all of the roles for a user are assigned. Users with multiple roles are listed once for each assigned role in the Users and groups list of users for the app.
  7. Select the Assign button.

DefaultAccessTokenScopes versus AdditionalScopesToConsent

The examples in this article provision Graph API scopes with DefaultAccessTokenScopes, not AdditionalScopesToConsent.

AdditionalScopesToConsent isn't used because it's unable to provision Graph API scopes for users when they sign in to the app for the first time with MSAL via the Azure consent UI. When the user attempts to access Graph API for the first time with the Graph SDK, they're confronted with an exception:

Microsoft.Graph.Models.ODataErrors.ODataError: Access token is empty.

After a user provisions Graph API scopes provided via DefaultAccessTokenScopes, the app can use AdditionalScopesToConsent for a subsequent user sign in. However, changing app code makes no sense for a production app that requires the periodic addition of new users with delegated Graph scopes or adding new delegated Graph API scopes to the app.

The preceding discussion of how to provision scopes for Graph API access when the user first signs into the app only applies to:

  • Apps that adopt the Graph SDK.
  • Apps that use a named HttpClient for Graph API access that asks users to consent to Graph scopes on their first sign in to the app.

When using a named HttpClient that doesn't ask users to consent to Graph scopes on their first sign in, users are redirected to the Azure consent UI for Graph API scopes consent when they first request access to Graph API via the DelegatingHandler of the preconfigured, named HttpClient. When Graph scopes aren't consented initially with the named HttpClient approach, neither DefaultAccessTokenScopes nor AdditionalScopesToConsent are called by the app. For more information, see the named HttpClient coverage in this article.

Hosted Blazor WebAssembly solutions

The examples in this article pertain to using the Graph SDK or a named HttpClient with Graph API directly from a standalone Blazor WebAssembly app or directly from the Client app of a hosted Blazor WebAssembly solution. An additional scenario that isn't covered by this article is for a Client app of a hosted solution to call the Server app of the solution via web API, and then the Server app uses the Graph SDK/API to call Microsoft Graph and return data to the Client app. Although this is a supported approach, it isn't covered by this article. If you wish to adopt this approach:

  • Follow the guidance in Call a web API from an ASP.NET Core Blazor app for the web API aspects on issuing requests to the Server app from the Client app and returning data to the Client app.
  • Follow the guidance in the primary Microsoft Graph documentation to use the Graph SDK with a typical ASP.NET Core app, which in this scenario is the Server app of the solution. If you use the Blazor WebAssembly project template to the create the hosted Blazor WebAssembly solution (ASP.NET Core Hosted/-h|--hosted) with organizational authorization (single organization/SingleOrg or multiple organization/MultiOrg) and the Microsoft Graph option (Microsoft identity platform > Connected Services > Add Microsoft Graph permissions in Visual Studio or the --calls-graph option with the .NET CLI dotnet new command), the Server app of the solution is configured to use the Graph SDK when the solution is created from the project template.

Additional resources

General guidance

  • Microsoft Graph documentation
  • Microsoft Graph sample Blazor WebAssembly app: This sample demonstrates how to use the Microsoft Graph .NET SDK to access data in Office 365 from Blazor WebAssembly apps.
  • Build .NET apps with Microsoft Graph tutorial and Microsoft Graph sample ASP.NET Core app: These resources are most appropriate for hosted Blazor WebAssembly solutions, where the Server app is configured to access Microsoft Graph as a typical ASP.NET Core app on behalf of the Client app. The Client app uses web API to make requests to the Server app for Graph data. Although these resources don't directly apply to calling Graph from client-side Blazor WebAssembly apps, the ME-ID app configuration and Microsoft Graph coding practices in the linked resources are relevant for standalone Blazor WebAssembly apps and should be consulted for general best practices.
