Question

Chrome keeps asking for MFA when opening Sharepoint site.

Jon Mercer 1,031

Sorry if this is in the wrong area, wasn't sure if this would be classified as a 2FA, Chrome, SharePoint, or Intune issue.

In Edge Chromium, if I open a SharePoint site, it just opens.

We just brought up a company SharePoint intranet site, and I uploaded the Google ADMX and such files and added the website to Intune so that it will set that as everyone's home page. Currently it is just limited to myself for testing.

If I open Chrome, it constantly asks for my 2FA. I can open a second tab and go to the SharePoint URL and it will ask for it.

Other people who are not part of this policy can go to the site without issue. I am wondering if it could be something with Intune.

It is setup under endpoint\devices\configuration profile.

Based on your requirement, I understand that when you access SharePoint site in the Google Chrome, it asks for MFA.

Please go to Azure Active Directory admin center -> Protect&secure -> Conditional Access -> Check whether has policy to enforce MFA.

I went to AAD Admin Center https://admin.microsoft.com/Adminportal/Home?#/homepage and there is no protect and secure. I went to Endpoint Manager and then Endpoint Security and then Conditional Access.

MFA is enabled for Office 365 which is how I want it. The issue is, is why is it every time I open a SharePoint site in Chrome it is asking for me to do my phone authentication?

Hi Jon,

We are having the same problem. A homepage made in Sharepoint, that keeps asking MFA. Have you found some answers or solutions?

Sorry I didn't. It seemed to be if Chrome was the default browser it wasn't an issue but if something like Edge Chromium was it kept asking for authentication when Chrome was opened. We eventually decided it wasn't worth the effort and gave up making our companies internal SharePoint site the default webpage.

The best I could figure out is I am guessing Windows is remembering the authentication on whatever browser is the default. If you are able, might check to see if that is true on your end.
