Welcome! This probably isn't the page you were expecting. While we work on a fix, this link should take you to the right article:

Quickstart: Add sign-in with Microsoft to a Python web app

We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience while we work to get this resolved.

In this quickstart, you download and run a code sample that demonstrates how a Python web application can sign in users and get an access token to call the Microsoft Graph API. Users with a personal Microsoft Account or an account in any Microsoft Entra organization can sign into the application.

See How the sample works for an illustration.

Prerequisites

An Azure account with an active subscription. Create an account for free.
Python 2.7+ or Python 3+
Flask, Flask-Session, requests
MSAL Python

Step 1: Configure your application in Azure portal

For the code sample in this quickstart to work:

Add a reply URL as http://localhost:5000/getAToken.
Create a Client Secret.
Add Microsoft Graph API's User.ReadBasic.All delegated permission.

Make these changes for me

Already configured Your application is configured with this attribute

Step 2: Download your project

Download the project and extract the zip file to a local folder closer to the root folder - for example, C:\Azure-Samples

Download the code sample

Note

Enter_the_Supported_Account_Info_Here

Step 3: Run the code sample

You will need to install MSAL Python library, Flask framework, Flask-Sessions for server-side session management and requests using pip as follows:
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
Run app.py from shell or command line:
```
python app.py
```
Important

This quickstart application uses a client secret to identify itself as confidential client. Because the client secret is added as a plain-text to your project files, for security reasons, it is recommended that you use a certificate instead of a client secret before considering the application as production application. For more information on how to use a certificate, see these instructions.

Getting MSAL

MSAL is the library used to sign in users and request tokens used to access an API protected by the Microsoft identity platform. You can add MSAL Python to your application using Pip.

pip install msal

MSAL initialization

You can add the reference to MSAL Python by adding the following code to the top of the file where you will be using MSAL:

import msal
