External Identity Provider Administrator
HTTP request
POST /identity/authenticationEventsFlows/{authenticationEventsFlow-id}/microsoft.graph.externalUsersSelfServiceSignUpEventsFlow/onAuthenticationMethodLoadStart/microsoft.graph.onAuthenticationMethodLoadStartExternalUsersSelfServiceSignUp/identityProviders/$ref
In the request body, provide a JSON representation of the ID of the identityProvider you want to add. For self-service user flows, the values can be EmailPassword-OAUTH, EmailOtpSignup-OAUTH, Google-OAUTH, or Facebook-OAUTH.
Response
If successful, this method returns a 204 No Content response code. If unsuccessful, a 4xx error is returned with specific details.
