SSO for tabs and message extension
The Microsoft Entra single sign-on (Microsoft Entra SSO) helps to authenticate users in Teams.
Key aspects of Microsoft Entra SSO:
- Allows the user to sign in automatically after the first sign in.
- Allows the user to sign in to other devices without entering credentials again.
- Obtains token for the signed in user.
This step-by-step guide helps you to create tabs and message extensions enabling Microsoft Entra SSO authentication. You'll see the following output:
Prerequisites
Ensure that you install the following tools and set up your development environment:
| Install | For using... | |
|---|---|---|
| Microsoft Teams | Microsoft Teams to collaborate with everyone you work with through apps for chat, meetings, and calls all in one place. | |
| Microsoft 365 developer account | Access to Teams account with the appropriate permissions to install an app. | |
| .NET Core SDK | Customized bindings for local debugging and Azure Functions app deployments. If you haven't installed the latest version, install the portable version. | |
| Visual Studio 2022 | You can install the enterprise version in Visual Studio 2022, and install the ASP.NET and web development workloads. Use the latest version. | |
| Dev tunnel | Teams app features (conversational bots, message extensions, and incoming webhooks) need inbound connections. A tunnel connects your development system to Teams. Dev tunnel is a powerful tool to securely open your localhost to the internet and control who has access. Dev tunnel is available in Visual Studio 2022 version 17.7.0 or later. or You can also use ngrok as a tunnel to connect your development system to Teams. It isn't required for apps that only include tabs. This package is installed within the project directory (using npm devDependencies). |
