Okta to Azure AD B2C Users Migration JIT Approach Steps

Karikalan Ramakrishn 236

Hi,

I am using Azure AD B2C custom policies with SAML authentication.
Just wondering what are the options are available to migrate Okta IdP Users to Azure AD B2C.
Certainly, I don't prefer Bulk Import CSV file upload. Is there any chances of using using Just in Time migration of user account pls?
If yes, could you shed some light on example B2C custom policies references? Thanks.

Hello @Karikalan Ramakrishn and thanks for reaching out. You can find samples for Azure AD B2C JIT migration in GitHub.

Although the sample code is written in C# it relies on ADAL and AAD Graph which are deprecated. Please replace references to former found in AzureADGraphClient class with proper ones from MSAL.NET and MS Graph .NET SDK.

Also, to write the migration API in other programming languages like JavaScript, Java or Python is pretty straight forward provided endpoints included in the UserMigrationController class are migrated and the appropriate MSAL and MS Graph SDK are used.

Let us know if you need additional assistance. If the answer was helpful, please accept it and complete the quality survey so that others can find a solution.

Thanks @Alfredo Revilla - Upwork Top Talent | IAM SWE SWA ,

This is helpful. However, just wondering that we're familiar with B2C custom policies but our current Azure B2c setup is not for .Net based application and its integrated with our Java based application.
The link you have shared https://github.com/azure-ad-b2c/user-migration/tree/master/jit-migration-v1/source-code shows some .CS .Net source code. We afraid and not sure about the usage and scope of this .Net source code on this repository. Could you pls suggest whether this GitHub repository custom policies are limited to use with .Net only?

Thanks again.

@Karikalan Ramakrishn I am referring to this https://github.com/azure-ad-b2c/user-migration/tree/master/seamless-account-migration for migrating users from Okta to Azure AD. I am unable to get the RESTful API to work to verify the user credentials. Calling the api/v1/authn endpoint gives me 400 bad request always. Will it be possible for you to share the Base XML and Extensions XML file?

Hello @Noble K Varghese, due to the time passed since the original question and answer it would be best if you can create a new question. Feel free to mention me.

Hi @Noble K Varghese ,

Sorry, missed to get back to you. Base and Extension XMLs are same as available in Github repo that you shared. In our use case calling api/v1/authn endpoint are handled thru Application logic. We're using Azure AD OAuth 2.0 token endpoint (v2) endpoint for authentication. It's worth testing this endpoint thru POSTMAN API tools and confirm its working independently before dive into B2C policies to troubleshoot this pls. Thanks.
