Hi Team,

Currently, We are using msalClient authentication to signing user in our office add-ins(excel and word) using office.js. We are using Graph Api to retrieve data from one drive for that purpose also we are using same authentication.

We wish to implement the same thing using SAML authentication. We searched all add-in related stuff but we didn't find any reference.

Can you help us / guide us how we can achieve this. Is there any way to authenticate user using Security Assertion Markup Language(saml) in office.js?

    Hi @Chetan Kotwal
    I suspect you may need to add the add-in into Enterprise Applications in Azure AD and then enable SSO with SAML: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/manage-apps/add-application-portal-setup-sso
