OAuth: How to build a Nuxt web application with OAuth using Azure

Question

Hi,

I'm fairly new to developing full-stack applications and have been experimenting with OAuth through services like Firebase or Supabase.

I'm wondering if there are any up-to-date tutorials available to develop the same functionality through Azure??

Hi @Cal Grimes

Yes, you can build a Nuxt web application with OAuth using Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) as the identity provider.

Create an Azure AD tenant: If you don't already have an Azure AD tenant, you can create one in the Azure portal.

Register your Nuxt web application: Register your Nuxt web application in Azure AD to enable authentication and authorization. You can do this in the Azure portal by creating a new "App registration" and configuring the necessary settings.

Configure authentication in your Nuxt web application: Configure your Nuxt web application to use Azure AD for authentication. You can do this by installing the @nuxtjs/auth module and configuring it to use Azure AD as the identity provider.

Test authentication: Test authentication by logging in to your Nuxt web application using an Azure AD account.

Here are some resources that can help you get started:
