How to implement social login using Azure AD B2C in Node.js with Axios

Question

I am trying to implement social login (Google, Facebook) using Azure AD B2C in Node.js and Angular. I have already configured the client ID and client secret in Azure and created a user flow. However, I'm having trouble finding documentation on how to integrate this in Node.js and Angular to store user information in a database and call the Azure social login API for registration and login. Can someone provide me with a sample using Axios in Node.js?

Hi @Sridhar Renganathan ,

Thanks for reaching out.

To configure any social idP in your Azure AD B2C application, require you to create userflow or custom policy that you want to use for social login.

You can create user flow/custom policy to setup Google IdP as mentioned here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory-b2c/identity-provider-google?pivots=b2c-user-flow

Facebook Idp - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory-b2c/identity-provider-facebook?pivots=b2c-user-flow

Then you can configure authentication in Node.js by passing user flow/custom policy in the configration file in node sample which automatically allow social idp on signup/sign in page.

SIGN_UP_SIGN_IN_POLICY_AUTHORITY=https://<your-tenant-name>.b2clogin.com/<your-tenant-name>.onmicrosoft.com/<sign-in-sign-up-user-flow-name>
 

Reference sample - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory-b2c/configure-a-sample-node-web-app

Hope this will help.

Thanks,

Shweta
