Methods

Build()

Builds an instance of IPublicClientApplication from the parameters set in the PublicClientApplicationBuilder.

Create(String)

Creates a PublicClientApplicationBuilder from a clientID. See https://aka.ms/msal-net-application-configuration

CreateWithApplicationOptions(PublicClientApplicationOptions)

Creates a PublicClientApplicationBuilder from public client application configuration options. See https://aka.ms/msal-net-application-configuration

IsBrokerAvailable()

Returns true if a broker can be used. This method is only needed to be used in mobile scenarios which support Mobile Application Management. In other supported scenarios, use WithBroker by itself, which will fall back to use a browser if broker is unavailable.

WithBroker(Boolean)
WithCacheOptions(CacheOptions)

Options for MSAL token caches.

MSAL maintains a token cache internally in memory. By default, this cache object is part of each instance of PublicClientApplication or ConfidentialClientApplication. This method allows customization of the in-memory token cache of MSAL.

MSAL's memory cache is different than token cache serialization. Cache serialization pulls the tokens from a cache (e.g. Redis, Cosmos, or a file on disk), where they are stored in JSON format, into MSAL's internal memory cache. Memory cache operations do not involve JSON operations.

External cache serialization remains the recommended way to handle desktop apps, web site and web APIs, as it provides persistence. These options do not currently control external cache serialization.

Detailed guidance for each application type and platform: https://aka.ms/msal-net-token-cache-serialization

(Inherited from AbstractApplicationBuilder<T>)

WithInstanceDicoveryMetadata(String)
Obsolete.

Allows developers to configure their own valid authorities. A json string similar to https://aka.ms/aad-instance-discovery should be provided. MSAL uses this information to:

  • Call REST APIs on the environment specified in the preferred_network
  • Identify an environment under which to save tokens and accounts in the cache
  • Use the environment aliases to match tokens issued to other authorities
For more details see https://aka.ms/msal-net-custom-instance-metadata (Inherited from AbstractApplicationBuilder<T>)
WithInstanceDicoveryMetadata(Uri)
Obsolete.

Lets an organization setup their own service to handle instance discovery, which enables better caching for microservice/service environments. A Uri that returns a response similar to https://aka.ms/aad-instance-discovery should be provided. MSAL uses this information to:

  • Call REST APIs on the environment specified in the preferred_network
  • Identify an environment under which to save tokens and accounts in the cache
  • Use the environment aliases to match tokens issued to other authorities
For more details see https://aka.ms/msal-net-custom-instance-metadata (Inherited from AbstractApplicationBuilder<T>)
WithInstanceDiscovery(Boolean)

Determines whether or not instance discovery is performed when attempting to authenticate. Setting this to false will completely disable instance discovery and authority validation. This will not affect the behavior of application configured with regional endpoints however.

(Inherited from AbstractApplicationBuilder<T>)
WithInstanceDiscoveryMetadata(String)

Allows developers to configure their own valid authorities. A json string similar to https://aka.ms/aad-instance-discovery should be provided. MSAL uses this information to:

For more details see https://aka.ms/msal-net-custom-instance-metadata (Inherited from AbstractApplicationBuilder<T>)
WithIosKeychainSecurityGroup(String)

You can specify a Keychain Access Group to use for persisting the token cache across multiple applications. This enables you to share the token cache between several applications having the same Keychain access group. Sharing the token cache allows single sign-on between all of the applications that use the same Keychain access Group. See https://aka.ms/msal-net-ios-keychain-security-group for more information.

WithKerberosTicketClaim(String, KerberosTicketContainer)

Sets the parameters required to get a Kerberos Ticket from Azure AD service.
