Configure your app in Microsoft Entra ID

  • 發行項

Microsoft Entra ID provides app users access to your bot or message extension app. The app user who has signed in to Teams can be given access to your app.

SSO configuration in Microsoft Entra admin center

The bot and message extension apps use Bot Framework for communicating with app users and implementing authentication.

To configure SSO for your bot or message extension app, you'll need to:

  • Configure bot resource in Microsoft Entra ID
  • Configure app in Microsoft Entra ID

Note

Ensure that you've created an app and a bot resource in Microsoft Entra ID.

You can configure your bot resource and app in Microsoft Entra ID for your bot or message extension app in one of the following two ways:

  • Configure SSO using bot resource and configure Microsoft Entra app: You can start by configuring SSO for your bot resource, and enable SSO for your Microsoft Entra app. You'll configure:

    • For bot resource: Messaging endpoint and OAuth connection.

      Note

      When you create your bot resource in Microsoft Entra ID, you can select the option for creating a new app ID, or you can use an existing app ID if you've already registered your app in Microsoft Entra ID.

    • For Microsoft Entra app: App ID URI, scope and permissions, trusted client IDs, access token version, client secret, and redirect URL.

  • Configure SSO using Microsoft Entra app and then configuring bot resource: You can start by configuring your Microsoft Entra app, and then use this app ID in the bot resource when you enable SSO for it. You'll configure:

    • For Microsoft Entra app: App ID URI, access token, trusted client IDs, access token version, client secret, and redirect URL.

    • For bot resource: Messaging endpoint and OAuth connection.

      Note

      Configure bot resource using the app ID generated by Microsoft Entra ID when you registered your app.

Enable SSO in Microsoft Entra ID

By the end of this tutorial, you'll learn to configure:

  • Application ID
  • Bot ID
  • Access token
    • Application ID URI
    • Scope, permissions, and authorized client IDs
    • Client secret
    • Redirect URL
  • Messaging endpoint and OAuth connection

Select one of the following two ways to configure SSO for your bot resource:

To enable SSO for your app in Microsoft Entra ID:

Important

Ensure that when you create your bot resource, select the option to create a new app ID. You can also use an existing app ID, if you've already registered an app in Microsoft Entra admin center.

Configure messaging endpoint

Messaging endpoint is where messages are sent to your bot. It enables communication with your bot.

To configure messaging endpoint for your bot resource

  1. Open the Azure portal on your web browser. The Microsoft Azure Bot page opens.

  2. Enter the name of your bot resource in Search box, and select Enter to open it.

  3. Select Settings > Configuration.

    Screenshot shows the bot Configuration menu.

    The Configuration page appears.

  4. Enter the messaging endpoint URL where your bot receives app user's messages.

    Screenshot shows the Messaging endpoint option to add the URL where the bot interacts with the user.

  5. Select Apply.

    The messaging endpoint is configured.

You've configured the messaging endpoint for your bot resource. Next, you must enable SSO for the Microsoft Entra app.

Configure SSO for Microsoft Entra app

You must configure permissions and scopes, authorize client applications, update app manifest (previously called Teams app manifest), and create client secret for your Microsoft Entra app. These configurations help to invoke SSO for your bot app.

Configure scope for the access token

Configure scope (permission) options for sending access token to Teams client and authorizing trusted client applications to enable SSO.

You need:

  • To configure application ID URI: Configure scope (permission) options for your app. You'll expose a web API and configure the application ID URI.
  • To configure API scope: Define scope for the API, and the users who can consent for a scope. You can let only admins provide consent for higher-privileged permissions.
  • To configure authorized client application: Create authorized client IDs for applications that you want to pre-authorize. It allows the app user to access the app scopes (permissions) you've configured, without requiring any further consent. Pre-authorize only those client applications you trust, as your app users won't have the opportunity to decline consent.

To configure application ID URI

  1. Open the Azure portal on your web browser.

    The Microsoft Azure Bot page opens.

  2. Enter the name of your bot resource in Search box, and then select Enter to open it.

  3. Select Settings > Configuration.

    Screenshot shows the bot Configuration menu under Settings.

    The Configuration page appears.

  4. Select Manage.

    Screenshot shows the Bot resource configuration.

    The Microsoft Entra app page appears.

    The new app ID (client ID) for the app appears on this page. Note and save this app ID. You'll need to update it in the app manifest later. If you used the ID of an existing app when you created the bot resource, then ID of that app appears in this page.

    Screenshot shows the Bot app page with Application client ID highlighted.

  5. Select Manage > Expose an API from the left pane.

    The Expose an API page appears.

  6. Select Add to generate application ID URI.

    • The Application ID URI is prefilled with app ID (GUID) in the format api://{AppID}.

    Important

    • Sensitive information: The application ID URI is logged as part of the authentication process and must not contain sensitive information.

    • Standalone bot: If you're building a standalone bot, enter the application ID URI as api://botid-{YourBotId}. Here, {YourBotId} is your Microsoft Entra application ID.

    • Application ID URI for app with multiple capabilities: If you're building an app with a bot, a messaging extension, and a tab, enter the application ID URI as api://fully-qualified-domain-name.com/botid-{YourClientId}, where {YourClientId} is your bot app ID.

    • Format for domain name: Use lowercase letters for domain name. Don't use upper case.

      For example, to create an app service or web app with resource name, 'demoapplication':

      If base resource name used is URL will be... Format is supported on...
      demoapplication https://demoapplication.example.net All platforms.
      DemoApplication https://DemoApplication.example.net Desktop, web, and iOS only. It isn't supported in Android.

      Use the lowercase option demoapplication as base resource name.

  8. Select Save.

    A message appears on the browser stating that the application ID URI was updated.

    Screenshot shows the Application ID URI updated message.

    The application ID URI displays on the page.

    Ensure that you copy the value of client secret right after you create it. The value is visible only at the time when the client secret is created, and it can't be viewed after that.

You've configured the client secret. Next, you must configure the redirect URL.

Configure redirect URL

Configuration for authentication depends on the platform or device where you want to target your app. You may need to configure redirect URIs, authentication settings, or platform-specific details.

Note

  • If your bot app hasn't been granted IT admin consent, app users have to provide consent the first time they use your app on a different platform.
  • Implicit grant is not required if SSO is enabled on a bot app.

You can configure authentication for multiple platforms as long as the URL is unique.

To configure redirect URL

  1. Open the app you registered in the Azure portal.

  2. Select Manage > Authentication from the left pane.

    Screenshot shows the Authentication option under Manage.

    The Platform configurations page appears.

    3. Select the tokens you want Microsoft Entra ID to send for your app.

  6. Select Configure.

    The platform is configured and displayed in the Platform configurations page.

The Microsoft Entra app configuration is complete, and now you must enable SSO support for your bot resource by configuring OAuth connection.

Configure OAuth connection

For a bot to support SSO, you must update its OAuth connection settings. This process associates the bot with app details that you configured for your Microsoft Entra app:

  • Microsoft Entra app ID, which is the client ID
  • Tenant ID
  • Scope and permissions

With the app (client) ID and client secret provided, the Bot Framework Token Store exchanges the token for a graph token with defined permissions.

To update OAuth connection

  1. Open the Azure portal on your web browser. The Microsoft Azure Bot page opens.

  2. Enter the name of your Microsoft Entra app in Search box, and open your app.

  3. Select Settings > Configuration.

    Screenshot shows the configure OAUth settings for your bot app.

    The Configuration page appears.

  4. Move through the Configuration page and select Add OAuth Connection Settings.

    3. Enter the app (client) ID for the Microsoft Entra app.

    4. Enter the client secret that you've created for your bot.

    5. Enter the application ID URI of your bot in the Token Exchange URL.

    6. Enter the tenant ID.

    7. Enter the scope that you defined when you configured the scope and permissions.

  6. Select Save.

  7. Select Apply.

    After you've configured the OAuth connection, you can select Test connection to check if the OAuth connection is successful.

    Screenshot shows the Test OAuth connection for your bot resource option.

    If the connection isn't successful, Microsoft Entra ID displays an error. You can verify all the configurations and test again.

Congratulations! You've completed the following app configurations in Microsoft Entra ID required to enable SSO for your bot app:

  • Application ID
  • Bot ID
  • Access token
    • Application ID URI
    • Scope, permissions, and authorized client IDs
    • Client secret
    • Redirect URL
  • Messaging endpoint and OAuth connection

Best practices

  • Keep the Microsoft Entra app registration restricted to its original purpose of service to service application.
  • For better control over disabling authentication connections, rolling secrets, or reusing the Microsoft Entra app with other applications, create an additional Microsoft Entra app for any user to service authentication.

If you use the Microsoft Entra registration app for authentication, you might encounter the following issues:

  • If you renew the certificate attached to the Microsoft Entra app registration, it affects the users who have authenticated with other Microsoft Entra services using the certificate.
  • It creates a single point of failure and control for all authentication-related activities with the bot.
