Hi there,

We are currently using B2C with custom policies. Our sign in page, takes in user's email address and based on the email domain, it tries to authenticate with external tenant, if no configured external tenant matches, it asks the user to enter password and tries to login using local account.

We have predefined external tenants configured using OIDC connections.

We are looking to use Entra External ID, can we set it up to cater for our requirements?

Thank you!

    Hi @Dilpreet Singh , yes you can do this! You can continue using custom policies in Entra External ID to define the sign-in experience. You can take in the user's email address and authenticate based on the email domain.

    External tenants can be configured using OIDC connections, similar to your current setup with B2C.

    Please let me know if you have any questions and I can help you further.
