I am creating iOS app for organization, without adding iOS and Android platform in Azure portal with redirect URI end with "/nativeclient".
I'm Using MSAL 1.1.3 latest version to get this done with XCode 12. I am unable to get token.
Help me for right integration for iOS

Hello, you need to set iOS/macOS as platform and add your app's Bundle ID. This and more steps are detailed in the Tutorial: Sign in users and call Microsoft Graph from an iOS or macOS app.

Thanks for reply,

Yes I have tried approach as you suggested. But,
we are creating SSO app, which will be applicable for Desk and mobile based application. Not allowed add specific platform.
we are using common redirect URI : login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/nativeclient.

in android we are getting success using SMAL Android, But when I'm trying SMAL iOS swift I'm just get redirect to "nativeclient"

@Chandgude, F.Suresh add the following redirect uri to your app registration:

msauth.[Your_Bundle_Id]://auth

Yes, it worked after adding
msauth.[client_ID]://auth

it worked well, but I got to know that we have to implement SAML 2.0.

Is it possible to integrate SAML 2.0 using MSAL, without adding platform in Azure portal.

Is there any SDK to integrate SAML 2.0. in native mobile app (iOS/Android)

Also

below link specify that Microsoft identity platform uses the SAML 2.0. can u please elaborate it more

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/active-directory-saml-protocol-reference

How Microsoft identity platform uses the SAML protocolThis article provides an overview of the Single Sign-On and Single Sign-Out SAML profiles in Azure Active Directory.learn.microsoft.com

Hi again, that's great. Regarding SAML there's no authentication library available from Microsoft that supports it. SAML configuration is not managed in app registration (thus platforms do not apply) but in enterprise application Single Sign node. Why is SAML required for this implementation instead of OAuth2/OpenID Connect?

• OAuth2.0
• Open ID Connect
• SSO setting by SAML

those are approved way to integration from our organization . please guide me to integrate correct way to implement.

If OAuth2 and OIDC have been approved you don't need SAML at all.
