ITokenCacheSerializer.SerializeMsalV3 Method

Definition

Namespace:

Microsoft.Identity.Client

Assembly:

Microsoft.Identity.Client.dll

Package:

Microsoft.Identity.Client v4.60.3

Serializes the token cache to the MSAL.NET 3.x cache format, which is compatible with other MSAL desktop libraries, including MSAL.NET 4.x, MSAL for Python and MSAL for Java. If you need to maintain SSO between an application using ADAL 3.x and this application using MSAL 3.x or later, you might also want to serialize and deserialize with SerializeAdalV3()/DeserializeAdalV3(Byte[]), otherwise just use SerializeMsalV3()/DeserializeMsalV3(Byte[], Boolean).

public byte[] SerializeMsalV3 ();

abstract member SerializeMsalV3 : unit -> byte[]

Public Function SerializeMsalV3 () As Byte()

Returns

Byte[]

Byte stream representation of the cache

Remarks

This is the recommended format for maintaining SSO state between applications. SerializeMsalV3()/DeserializeMsalV3(Byte[], Boolean) is compatible with other MSAL libraries such as MSAL for Python and MSAL for Java.
