Add single sign-on to Teams app

Microsoft Teams provides single sign-on (SSO) function for an app to obtain signed in Teams user token to access Microsoft Graph and other APIs. Microsoft Teams Toolkit facilitates the interaction by abstracting few of the Microsoft Entra ID flows and integrations behind simple APIs and enables you to add SSO features easily to your Teams app.

Note

When SSO is enabled, Teams Toolkit by default provisions a single-tenant Microsoft Entra app, which means only user and guest accounts in the same directory as your M365 account can sign in to your Teams app. For more information on supporting multitenant to update your TeamsFx project, see Multi-tenancy support for Microsoft Entra app.
