ClientApplication Class

  • Reference

You do not usually directly use this class. Use its subclasses instead: PublicClientApplication and ConfidentialClientApplication.

Create an instance of application.

Inheritance
builtins.object
ClientApplication

Constructor

ClientApplication(client_id, client_credential=None, authority=None, validate_authority=True, token_cache=None, http_client=None, verify=True, proxies=None, timeout=None, client_claims=None, app_name=None, app_version=None, client_capabilities=None, azure_region=None, exclude_scopes=None, http_cache=None, instance_discovery=None, allow_broker=None, enable_pii_log=None, oidc_authority=None)

Parameters

Name Description
client_id
Required
str

Your app has a client_id after you register it on Microsoft Entra admin center.
client_credential
Union[dict, str, None]

For PublicClientApplication, you use None here.

For ConfidentialClientApplication, it supports many different input formats for different scenarios.

Support using a client secret.Just feed in a string, such as "your client secret".

Support using a certificate in X.509 (.pem) formatFeed in a dict in this form:


   {
       "private_key": "...-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----... in PEM format",
       "thumbprint": "A1B2C3D4E5F6...",
       "passphrase": "Passphrase if the private_key is encrypted (Optional. Added in version 1.6.0)",
   }

MSAL Python requires a "private_key" in PEM format. If your cert is in PKCS12 (.pfx) format, you can convert it to X.509 (.pem) format, by openssl pkcs12 -in file.pfx -out file.pem -nodes.The thumbprint is available in your app's registration in Azure Portal. Alternatively, you can calculate the thumbprint.

Support Subject Name/Issuer Auth with a cert in .pemSubject Name/Issuer Auth

is an approach to allow easier certificate rotation.Added in version 0.5.0:


   {
       "private_key": "...-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----... in PEM format",
       "thumbprint": "A1B2C3D4E5F6...",
       "public_certificate": "...-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----...",
       "passphrase": "Passphrase if the private_key is encrypted (Optional. Added in version 1.6.0)",
   }

public_certificate (optional) is public key certificate which will be sent through 'x5c' JWT header only for subject name and issuer authentication to support cert auto rolls.Per specs, "the certificate containing the public key corresponding to the key used to digitally sign the JWS MUST be the first certificate. This MAY be followed by additional certificates, with each subsequent certificate being the one used to certify the previous one." However, your certificate's issuer may use a different order. So, if your attempt ends up with an error AADSTS700027 - "The provided signature value did not match the expected signature value", you may try use only the leaf cert (in PEM/str format) instead.

Supporting raw assertion obtained from elsewhereAdded in version 1.13.0:

It can also be a completely pre-signed assertion that you've assembled yourself. Simply pass a container containing only the key "client_assertion", like this:


   {
       "client_assertion": "...a JWT with claims aud, exp, iss, jti, nbf, and sub..."
   }

Supporting reading client cerficates from PFX filesAdded in version 1.29.0:

Feed in a dictionary containing the path to a PFX file:


   {
       "private_key_pfx_path": "/path/to/your.pfx",
       "passphrase": "Passphrase if the private_key is encrypted (Optional)",
   }

The following command will generate a .pfx file from your .key and .pem file:


   openssl pkcs12 -export -out certificate.pfx -inkey privateKey.key -in certificate.pem

Support Subject Name/Issuer Auth with a cert in .pfxAdded in version 1.30.0:

If your .pfx file contains both the private key and public cert, you can opt in for Subject Name/Issuer Auth like this:


   {
       "private_key_pfx_path": "/path/to/your.pfx",
       "public_certificate": True,
       "passphrase": "Passphrase if the private_key is encrypted (Optional)",
   }
Default value: None
client_claims
dict

Added in version 0.5.0: It is a dictionary of extra claims that would be signed by by this ConfidentialClientApplication 's private key. For example, you can use {"client_ip": "x.x.x.x"}. You may also override any of the following default claims:


   {
       "aud": the_token_endpoint,
       "iss": self.client_id,
       "sub": same_as_issuer,
       "exp": now + 10_min,
       "iat": now,
       "jti": a_random_uuid
   }
Default value: None
authority
str

A URL that identifies a token authority. It should be of the format https://login.microsoftonline.com/your_tenant By default, we will use https://login.microsoftonline.com/common

Changed in version 1.17: you can also use predefined constant and a builder like this:


   from msal.authority import (
       AuthorityBuilder,
       AZURE_US_GOVERNMENT, AZURE_CHINA, AZURE_PUBLIC)
   my_authority = AuthorityBuilder(AZURE_PUBLIC, "contoso.onmicrosoft.com")
   # Now you get an equivalent of
   # "https://login.microsoftonline.com/contoso.onmicrosoft.com"

   # You can feed such an authority to msal's ClientApplication
   from msal import PublicClientApplication
   app = PublicClientApplication("my_client_id", authority=my_authority, ...)
Default value: None
validate_authority
bool

(optional) Turns authority validation on or off. This parameter default to true.

Default value: True
token_cache
TokenCache

Sets the token cache used by this ClientApplication instance. By default, an in-memory cache will be created and used.

Default value: None
http_client

(optional) Your implementation of abstract class HttpClient <msal.oauth2cli.http.http_client> Defaults to a requests session instance. Since MSAL 1.11.0, the default session would be configured to attempt one retry on connection error. If you are providing your own http_client, it will be your http_client's duty to decide whether to perform retry.

Default value: None
verify

(optional) It will be passed to the verify parameter in the underlying requests library This does not apply if you have chosen to pass your own Http client

Default value: True
proxies

(optional) It will be passed to the proxies parameter in the underlying requests library This does not apply if you have chosen to pass your own Http client

Default value: None
timeout

(optional) It will be passed to the timeout parameter in the underlying requests library This does not apply if you have chosen to pass your own Http client

Default value: None
app_name

(optional) You can provide your application name for Microsoft telemetry purposes. Default value is None, means it will not be passed to Microsoft.

Default value: None
app_version

(optional) You can provide your application version for Microsoft telemetry purposes. Default value is None, means it will not be passed to Microsoft.

Default value: None
client_capabilities
list[str]

(optional) Allows configuration of one or more client capabilities, e.g. ["CP1"].

Client capability is meant to inform the Microsoft identity platform (STS) what this client is capable for, so STS can decide to turn on certain features. For example, if client is capable to handle claims challenge, STS may issue Continuous Access Evaluation (CAE) access tokens to resources, knowing that when the resource emits a claims challenge the client will be able to handle those challenges.

Implementation details: Client capability is implemented using "claims" parameter on the wire, for now. MSAL will combine them into claims parameter which you will later provide via one of the acquire-token request.

Default value: None
azure_region
str

(optional) Instructs MSAL to use the Entra regional token service. This legacy feature is only available to first-party applications. Only acquire_token_for_client() is supported.

Supports 3 values:

azure_region=None - meaning no region is used. This is the default value. azure_region="some_region" - meaning the specified region is used. azure_region=True - meaning MSAL will try to auto-detect the region. This is not recommended.

Note

Region auto-discovery has been tested on VMs and on Azure Functions. It is unreliable.

Applications using this option should configure a short timeout.

For more details and for the values of the region string

see https://learn.microsoft.com/entra/msal/dotnet/resources/region-discovery-troubleshooting

New in version 1.12.0.

Default value: None
exclude_scopes
list[str]

(optional) Historically MSAL hardcodes offline_access scope, which would allow your app to have prolonged access to user's data. If that is unnecessary or undesirable for your app, now you can use this parameter to supply an exclusion list of scopes, such as exclude_scopes = ["offline_access"].

Default value: None
http_cache
dict

MSAL has long been caching tokens in the token_cache. Recently, MSAL also introduced a concept of http_cache, by automatically caching some finite amount of non-token http responses, so that long-lived PublicClientApplication and ConfidentialClientApplication would be more performant and responsive in some situations.

This http_cache parameter accepts any dict-like object. If not provided, MSAL will use an in-memory dict.

If your app is a command-line app (CLI), you would want to persist your http_cache across different CLI runs. The following recipe shows a way to do so:


   # Just add the following lines at the beginning of your CLI script
   import sys, atexit, pickle
   http_cache_filename = sys.argv[0] + ".http_cache"
   try:
       with open(http_cache_filename, "rb") as f:
           persisted_http_cache = pickle.load(f)  # Take a snapshot
   except (
           FileNotFoundError,  # Or IOError in Python 2
           pickle.UnpicklingError,  # A corrupted http cache file
           ):
       persisted_http_cache = {}  # Recover by starting afresh
   atexit.register(lambda: pickle.dump(
       # When exit, flush it back to the file.
       # It may occasionally overwrite another process's concurrent write,
       # but that is fine. Subsequent runs will reach eventual consistency.
       persisted_http_cache, open(http_cache_file, "wb")))

   # And then you can implement your app as you normally would
   app = msal.PublicClientApplication(
       "your_client_id",
       ...,
       http_cache=persisted_http_cache,  # Utilize persisted_http_cache
       ...,
       #token_cache=...,  # You may combine the old token_cache trick
           # Please refer to token_cache recipe at
           # https://msal-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/#msal.SerializableTokenCache
       )
   app.acquire_token_interactive(["your", "scope"], ...)

Content inside http_cache are cheap to obtain. There is no need to share them among different apps.

Content inside http_cache will contain no tokens nor Personally Identifiable Information (PII). Encryption is unnecessary.

New in version 1.16.0.

Default value: None
instance_discovery
<xref:boolean>

Historically, MSAL would connect to a central endpoint located at https://login.microsoftonline.com to acquire some metadata, especially when using an unfamiliar authority. This behavior is known as Instance Discovery.

This parameter defaults to None, which enables the Instance Discovery.

If you know some authorities which you allow MSAL to operate with as-is, without involving any Instance Discovery, the recommended pattern is:


   known_authorities = frozenset([  # Treat your known authorities as const
       "https://contoso.com/adfs", "https://login.azs/foo"])
   ...
   authority = "https://contoso.com/adfs"  # Assuming your app will use this
   app1 = PublicClientApplication(
       "client_id",
       authority=authority,
       # Conditionally disable Instance Discovery for known authorities
       instance_discovery=authority not in known_authorities,
       )

If you do not know some authorities beforehand, yet still want MSAL to accept any authority that you will provide, you can use a False to unconditionally disable Instance Discovery.

New in version 1.19.0.

Default value: None
allow_broker
<xref:boolean>

Deprecated. Please use enable_broker_on_windows instead.

Default value: None
enable_pii_log
<xref:boolean>

When enabled, logs may include PII (Personal Identifiable Information). This can be useful in troubleshooting broker behaviors. The default behavior is False.

New in version 1.24.0.

Default value: None
oidc_authority
str

Added in version 1.28.0: It is a URL that identifies an OpenID Connect (OIDC) authority of the format https://contoso.com/tenant. MSAL will append ".well-known/openid-configuration" to the authority and retrieve the OIDC metadata from there, to figure out the endpoints.

Note: Broker will NOT be used for OIDC authority.

Default value: None

Methods

acquire_token_by_auth_code_flow

Validate the auth response being redirected back, and obtain tokens.

It automatically provides nonce protection.
acquire_token_by_authorization_code

The second half of the Authorization Code Grant.
acquire_token_by_refresh_token

Acquire token(s) based on a refresh token (RT) obtained from elsewhere.

You use this method only when you have old RTs from elsewhere, and now you want to migrate them into MSAL. Calling this method results in new tokens automatically storing into MSAL.

You do NOT need to use this method if you are already using MSAL. MSAL maintains RT automatically inside its token cache, and an access token can be retrieved when you call acquire_token_silent.
acquire_token_by_username_password

Gets a token for a given resource via user credentials.

See this page for constraints of Username Password Flow. https://github.com/AzureAD/microsoft-authentication-library-for-python/wiki/Username-Password-Authentication
acquire_token_silent

Acquire an access token for given account, without user interaction.

It has same parameters as the acquire_token_silent_with_error. The difference is the behavior of the return value. This method will combine the cache empty and refresh error into one return value, None. If your app does not care about the exact token refresh error during token cache look-up, then this method is easier and recommended.
acquire_token_silent_with_error

Acquire an access token for given account, without user interaction.

It is done either by finding a valid access token from cache, or by finding a valid refresh token from cache and then automatically use it to redeem a new access token.

This method will differentiate cache empty from token refresh error. If your app cares the exact token refresh error during token cache look-up, then this method is suitable. Otherwise, the other method acquire_token_silent is recommended.
get_accounts

Get a list of accounts which previously signed in, i.e. exists in cache.

An account can later be used in acquire_token_silent to find its tokens.
get_authorization_request_url

Constructs a URL for you to start a Authorization Code Grant.
initiate_auth_code_flow

Initiate an auth code flow.

Later when the response reaches your redirect_uri, you can use acquire_token_by_auth_code_flow to complete the authentication/authorization.
is_pop_supported

Returns True if this client supports Proof-of-Possession Access Token.
remove_account

Sign me out and forget me from token cache

acquire_token_by_auth_code_flow

Validate the auth response being redirected back, and obtain tokens.

It automatically provides nonce protection.

acquire_token_by_auth_code_flow(auth_code_flow, auth_response, scopes=None, **kwargs)

Parameters

Name Description
auth_code_flow
Required
dict

The same dict returned by initiate_auth_code_flow.
auth_response
Required
dict

A dict of the query string received from auth server.
scopes
list[str]

Scopes requested to access a protected API (a resource).

Most of the time, you can leave it empty.

If you requested user consent for multiple resources, here you will need to provide a subset of what you required in initiate_auth_code_flow.

OAuth2 was designed mostly for singleton services, where tokens are always meant for the same resource and the only changes are in the scopes. In Microsoft Entra, tokens can be issued for multiple 3rd party resources. You can ask authorization code for multiple resources, but when you redeem it, the token is for only one intended recipient, called audience. So the developer need to specify a scope so that we can restrict the token to be issued for the corresponding audience.

Default value: None

Returns

Type Description

  • A dict containing "access_token" and/or "id_token", among others, depends on what scope was used. (See https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6749#section-5.1)

  • A dict containing "error", optionally "error_description", "error_uri". (It is either this or that)

  • Most client-side data error would result in ValueError exception. So the usage pattern could be without any protocol details:

    
   def authorize():  # A controller in a web app
       try:
           result = msal_app.acquire_token_by_auth_code_flow(
               session.get("flow", {}), request.args)
           if "error" in result:
               return render_template("error.html", result)
           use(result)  # Token(s) are available in result and cache
       except ValueError:  # Usually caused by CSRF
           pass  # Simply ignore them
       return redirect(url_for("index"))

acquire_token_by_authorization_code

The second half of the Authorization Code Grant.

acquire_token_by_authorization_code(code, scopes, redirect_uri=None, nonce=None, claims_challenge=None, **kwargs)

Parameters

Name Description
code
Required

The authorization code returned from Authorization Server.
scopes
Required
list[str]

(Required) Scopes requested to access a protected API (a resource).

If you requested user consent for multiple resources, here you will typically want to provide a subset of what you required in AuthCode.

OAuth2 was designed mostly for singleton services, where tokens are always meant for the same resource and the only changes are in the scopes. In Microsoft Entra, tokens can be issued for multiple 3rd party resources. You can ask authorization code for multiple resources, but when you redeem it, the token is for only one intended recipient, called audience. So the developer need to specify a scope so that we can restrict the token to be issued for the corresponding audience.
nonce

If you provided a nonce when calling get_authorization_request_url, same nonce should also be provided here, so that we'll validate it. An exception will be raised if the nonce in id token mismatches.

Default value: None
claims_challenge

The claims_challenge parameter requests specific claims requested by the resource provider in the form of a claims_challenge directive in the www-authenticate header to be returned from the UserInfo Endpoint and/or in the ID Token and/or Access Token. It is a string of a JSON object which contains lists of claims being requested from these locations.

Default value: None
redirect_uri
Default value: None

Returns

Type Description

A dict representing the json response from Microsoft Entra:

  • A successful response would contain "access_token" key,

  • an error response would contain "error" and usually "error_description".

acquire_token_by_refresh_token

Acquire token(s) based on a refresh token (RT) obtained from elsewhere.

You use this method only when you have old RTs from elsewhere, and now you want to migrate them into MSAL. Calling this method results in new tokens automatically storing into MSAL.

You do NOT need to use this method if you are already using MSAL. MSAL maintains RT automatically inside its token cache, and an access token can be retrieved when you call acquire_token_silent.

Parameters

Name Description
refresh_token
Required
str

The old refresh token, as a string.
scopes
Required
list

The scopes associate with this old RT. Each scope needs to be in the Microsoft identity platform (v2) format. See Scopes not resources.

Returns

Type Description

  • A dict contains "error" and some other keys, when error happened.

  • A dict contains no "error" key means migration was successful.

acquire_token_by_username_password

Gets a token for a given resource via user credentials.

See this page for constraints of Username Password Flow. https://github.com/AzureAD/microsoft-authentication-library-for-python/wiki/Username-Password-Authentication

password
Required
str

The password.
scopes
Required
list[str]

Scopes requested to access a protected API (a resource).
claims_challenge

The claims_challenge parameter requests specific claims requested by the resource provider in the form of a claims_challenge directive in the www-authenticate header to be returned from the UserInfo Endpoint and/or in the ID Token and/or Access Token. It is a string of a JSON object which contains lists of claims being requested from these locations.

Default value: None
auth_scheme
object

You can provide an msal.auth_scheme.PopAuthScheme object so that MSAL will get a Proof-of-Possession (POP) token for you.

New in version 1.26.0.

Default value: None

Returns

Type Description

A dict representing the json response from Microsoft Entra:

  • A successful response would contain "access_token" key,

  • an error response would contain "error" and usually "error_description".

acquire_token_silent

Acquire an access token for given account, without user interaction.

It has same parameters as the acquire_token_silent_with_error. The difference is the behavior of the return value. This method will combine the cache empty and refresh error into one return value, None. If your app does not care about the exact token refresh error during token cache look-up, then this method is easier and recommended.

force_refresh

If True, it will skip Access Token look-up, and try to find a Refresh Token to obtain a new Access Token.

Default value: False
claims_challenge

The claims_challenge parameter requests specific claims requested by the resource provider in the form of a claims_challenge directive in the www-authenticate header to be returned from the UserInfo Endpoint and/or in the ID Token and/or Access Token. It is a string of a JSON object which contains lists of claims being requested from these locations.

Required
list[str]

(Required) Scopes requested to access a protected API (a resource).
state
str

Recommended by OAuth2 for CSRF protection.

Default value: None
login_hint
str

Identifier of the user. Generally a User Principal Name (UPN).

Default value: None
redirect_uri
str

Address to return to upon receiving a response from the authority.

Default value: None
response_type
str

Default value is "code" for an OAuth2 Authorization Code grant.

You could use other content such as "id_token" or "token", which would trigger an Implicit Grant, but that is not recommended.

Default value: code
prompt
str

By default, no prompt value will be sent, not even string "none". You will have to specify a value explicitly. Its valid values are the constants defined in <xref:msal.Prompt>.

Default value: None
nonce

A cryptographically random value used to mitigate replay attacks. See also OIDC specs.

Default value: None
domain_hint

Can be one of "consumers" or "organizations" or your tenant domain "contoso.com". If included, it will skip the email-based discovery process that user goes through on the sign-in page, leading to a slightly more streamlined user experience. More information on possible values available in Auth Code Flow doc and domain_hint doc.

Default value: None
claims_challenge

The claims_challenge parameter requests specific claims requested by the resource provider in the form of a claims_challenge directive in the www-authenticate header to be returned from the UserInfo Endpoint and/or in the ID Token and/or Access Token. It is a string of a JSON object which contains lists of claims being requested from these locations.

Default value: None

Returns

Type Description

The authorization url as a string.

initiate_auth_code_flow

Initiate an auth code flow.

Later when the response reaches your redirect_uri, you can use acquire_token_by_auth_code_flow to complete the authentication/authorization.

initiate_auth_code_flow(scopes, redirect_uri=None, state=None, prompt=None, login_hint=None, domain_hint=None, claims_challenge=None, max_age=None, response_mode=None)

Parameters

Name Description
scopes
Required
list

It is a list of case-sensitive strings.
redirect_uri
str

Optional. If not specified, server will use the pre-registered one.

Default value: None
state
str

An opaque value used by the client to maintain state between the request and callback. If absent, this library will automatically generate one internally.

Default value: None
prompt
str

By default, no prompt value will be sent, not even string "none". You will have to specify a value explicitly. Its valid values are the constants defined in <xref:msal.Prompt>.

Default value: None
login_hint
str

Optional. Identifier of the user. Generally a User Principal Name (UPN).

Default value: None
domain_hint

Can be one of "consumers" or "organizations" or your tenant domain "contoso.com". If included, it will skip the email-based discovery process that user goes through on the sign-in page, leading to a slightly more streamlined user experience. More information on possible values available in Auth Code Flow doc and domain_hint doc.

Default value: None
max_age
int

OPTIONAL. Maximum Authentication Age. Specifies the allowable elapsed time in seconds since the last time the End-User was actively authenticated. If the elapsed time is greater than this value, Microsoft identity platform will actively re-authenticate the End-User.

MSAL Python will also automatically validate the auth_time in ID token.

New in version 1.15.

Default value: None
response_mode
str

OPTIONAL. Specifies the method with which response parameters should be returned. The default value is equivalent to query, which is still secure enough in MSAL Python (because MSAL Python does not transfer tokens via query parameter in the first place). For even better security, we recommend using the value form_post. In "form_post" mode, response parameters will be encoded as HTML form values that are transmitted via the HTTP POST method and encoded in the body using the application/x-www-form-urlencoded format. Valid values can be either "form_post" for HTTP POST to callback URI or "query" (the default) for HTTP GET with parameters encoded in query string. More information on possible values here https://openid.net/specs/oauth-v2-multiple-response-types-1_0.html#ResponseModes and here https://openid.net/specs/oauth-v2-form-post-response-mode-1_0.html#FormPostResponseMode

Default value: None
claims_challenge
Default value: None

Returns

Type Description

The auth code flow. It is a dict in this form:


   {
       "auth_uri": "https://...",  // Guide user to visit this
