Hi - my client is having a problem logging into their static web app because the Microsoft sign in screen is presuming they want to login with an account already on file and proceeds to do an automatic sign in (this fails because it's not the correct account). In order to select the correct account the customer must go to portal.azure.com so that they can use the switch accounts button before they can try to login to their website again. Once they do switch accounts the browser detects (I guess?) multiple accounts and Microsoft prompts the user to select from the accounts on file.
The user should obviously not have to navigate to the azure portal page in order to switch accounts. Azure static web apps should provide some sort of feature to enable the developer to force the account selection page.
What is the ETA for a feature like this being completed for static web apps?

I’ve been discussing on this internally with our product engineering team. Currently, as I understand there are no plans to add this feature. I have relayed this feedback internally to our team. You may also submit a feature request on the Static WebApp GitHub, it would help enable our product team to get visibility into demand for it.Feel free to reach back to me if you have any further questions on this.

2023-02-18T00:06:24.14+00:00 How then is my client supposed to switch accounts? Right now they're having to log in to the azure portal so that they can use the switch account button on the top right, but they shouldn't have to do that.
Please also show your team this thread. Other people are wanting this feature as well. https://github.com/Azure/Azure-Functions/issues/2285
