Web app Social authenitication in Azure

Vivek Kumar 1

Hello

I like to use the authentication feature provided by azure web apps.
However, I like the visitor to the main page and authenticating themself, once they visit the customized page.

I use Java-Spring and redirect all the unauthenticated users to the login page. From there, a user should go to Facebook, Google, or Twitter.

However when i redirect user to /.auth/login/Facebook. the browser gets redirected back to the login page.

Can some point me to some sample or mistake that I am making?

Thanks for asking question! Could you confirm if you have configured or registered your App Service to use Facebook login?

Check this article on detailed steps which shows how to configure Azure App Service to use Facebook as an authentication provider.

Let us know.

Thanks! Could you please make sure the redirect_uri has been added to Valid OAuth redirect URIs. (Step 6) HTTP or HTTPS could be a possible cause.
Also could you look into fiddler to capture the network package to check your facebook logon processing in case URL is blocked.

Problem is still there for me. Is there example application for this.

I feel Azure app service is not capturing the "/.auth/login/facebook?" URI and sending it to Facebook.
