What are the sign in logs in the users blade of Azure AD B2C ? Do these include the sign ins to the applications registered under Azure AD B2C ?

    Hi anonymous user • Thank you for reaching out.

    The sign-in logs contain the sign-in activities of the Local (signed up) users but the authentication for signing in to the application(s) using B2C user flows/custom policy is facilitated by ProxyIdentityExperienceFramework and IdentityExperienceFramework applications. So, you won't see the information by the actual application registered to use user flows/custom policy in the sign-in activity logs. Rather you will see the Application: ProxyIdentityExperienceFramework and Resource: IdentityExperienceFramework in the sign-in activity of the local users.

    Azure AD B2C requires you to register two applications that it uses to sign up and sign in users with local accounts: IdentityExperienceFramework, a web API, and ProxyIdentityExperienceFramework, a native app with delegated permission to the IdentityExperienceFramework app. Your users can sign up with an email address or username and a password to access your tenant-registered applications, which creates a "local account."
