I plan on following this tutorial to integrate B2C and Azure API Management service together. I want external customers using B2C to access my APIs, however I want users to only be able to access my API by using premade accounts - accounts my company has created in B2C for each user.
I was wondering if for this tutorial I could prevent users from signing up and only let them sign in to access the APIs in APIM using accounts premade in B2C.
I was thinking that instead of using the sign-in sign-up flow on the B2C portion of the tutorial, I could just choose to do a sign-in flow and then continue the tutorial just by using that information. I'm not sure how to disable sign ups on the developer portal though. If this is possible, how would I go about doing it? Thank you and please let me know if I need to go more in-depth about anything.
@hampton123 That is correct. In addition to the change in flow, you could remove the button/page for Sign Up as shown in Steps #5 and #6 of this FAQ.
Thank you Pramod Valavala! One last question, how would I go about putting the B2C users in the API Management instance right after B2C user creation?
@hampton123 Apologies for the delay here! You wouldn't really need to add users to APIM as such, they should already be able to login and authenticate for the developer portal.
