0.6.0 • Public • Published

Apache Cordova plugin for Microsoft Azure Active Directory Graph

Provides JavaScript API to work with Microsoft Azure Active Directory Graph.

Supported Platforms####

  • Android (cordova-android@>=4.0.0 is supported)
  • iOS
  • Windows (Windows 8.0, Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1)

Sample usage

To access the AAD Graph API you need to acquire an access token and get the AAD client. Then, you can send async queries to interact with AAD entities. Note: application ID, authorization and redirect URIs are assigned when you register your app with Microsoft Azure Active Directory.

var resourceUrl = 'https://graph.windows.net/';
var tenantName = 'sampleDirectory2015.onmicrosoft.com';
var endpointUrl = resourceUrl + tenantName;
var appId = '98ba0820-f7da-4411-87bb-598e0475536b';
var authority = 'https://login.windows.net/' + tenantName + '/';
var redirectUrl = 'http://localhost:4400/services/aad/redirectTarget.html';
 
var AuthenticationContext = Microsoft.ADAL.AuthenticationContext;
var ActiveDirectoryClient = Microsoft.AADGraph.ActiveDirectoryClient;
 
var authContext = new AuthenticationContext(authority);
var client = new ActiveDirectoryClient(endpointUrl, authContext, resourceUrl, appId, redirectUrl);
 
client.users.getUsers().fetchAll().then(function (users) {
    result.forEach(function (user) {
        console.log('User: ' + user.displayName + ' PrincipalName: ' + user.userPrincipalName);
    });
}, function(error) {
    console.log(error);
});

Complete example is available here.

Entity types and their specific operations

Users

Creating and initializing an entity instance

var user = new AadGraph.User();
user.displayName = 'displayName';
user.mailNickname = 'mailNickname';
user.userPrincipalName = displayName + '@' + tenantName;
var passwordProfile = new AadGraph.PasswordProfile();
passwordProfile.password = "tempPassword1234";
passwordProfile.forceChangePasswordNextLogin = true;
user.passwordProfile = passwordProfile;
// `usageLocation` property is required in order to use `assignLicense` method (see example below):
user.usageLocation = 'US';
user.accountEnabled = true;

Managing subscriptions and plans

You can call on user assignLicense to add or remove subscriptions for the user. You can also enable and disable specific plans associated with a subscription.

Adding a subscription with its service plans:
user.assignLicense([
{
    "disabledPlans": [],
    "skuId": subscribedSkuId
}], []).then(function () { ... }, function(err));
Disabling subscription plan:
user.assignLicense([
{
    "disabledPlans": [servicePlanIdToDisable],
    "skuId": subscribedSkuId
}], []).then(function () { ... }, function(err));
Removing subscription:
user.assignLicense([], [subscribedSkuIdToRemove]);

Reseting user password

To reset user password you should update its PasswordProfile property. For example:

user.passwordProfile = new AadGraph.PasswordProfile();
user.passwordProfile.password = "ChangedPass1234";
user.passwordProfile.forceChangePasswordNextLogin = true;
user.update().then( ... );

Manager

// Getting
user.manager.fetch().then(function(manager) { ... }, function(err) { ... });
 
// Updating
user.update_manager(anotherUser).then(function () { ... }, function(err) { ... });

DirectReports

The Get User’s Direct Reports operation returns a list of the user’s direct reports. These are users and contacts that have their manager navigation property set to the user on which the operation is performed.

user.directReports.getDirectoryObjects().fetchAll().then(function(reports) { 
    ...
}, function(err) { 
    ...
});

memberOf

user.memberOf.getDirectoryObjects().fetchAll().then( ... )

OAuth2PermissionGrants

user.oauth2PermissionGrants.getOAuth2PermissionGrants().fetchAll().then( ... );

AppRoleAssignments

user.appRoleAssignments.getAppRoleAssignments().fetchAll().then( ... )
 
user.appRoleAssignments.addAppRoleAssignment(newItem).then(function(addedItem) { 
    ... 
}, function(err) { 
    ... 
});

Groups

Creating and initializing an entity instance

var group = new AadGraph.Group(client.context);
group.displayName = 'myGroup';
group.mailNickname = 'groupMailNickName';
group.mailEnabled = 'false';
group.securityEnabled = 'true';`

Members

group.members.getDirectoryObjects().fetchAll().then(function(members) { 
    ... 
}, function(err) { 
    ... 
});
 
group.addMember(newMember).then(function () { 
    ... 
}, function(err) { 
    ... 
});
 
group.deleteMember(existingMember).then(function () { 
    ... 
}, function(err) { 
    ... 
});

Note: members property is applicable to DirectoryRole as well.

isMemberOf

client.isMemberOf(group.objectId, user.objectId).then(function(obj) {
   if (obj.value === true) { console.log('the member is in the group'); } 
}, function(err) { ... });

getMemberGroups

Call the getMemberGroups function on a user, contact, group, or service principal to get the group objectId's that it is a member of. You can pass boolean argument to get only security enabled groups.
For example,

// `securityEnabledOnly` - false by default
user.getMemberGroups().then(function (groupIds) {}, function(err) { ... });
 
// `securityEnabledOnly` = true
user.getMemberGroups(true).then(function (groupIds) {}, function(err) { ... });

getMemberObjects

This function is similar to getMemberGroups but it returns role objectIds as well.

checkMemberGroups

You can call checkMemberGroups on an instance to check its membership in a list of groups.

user.checkMemberGroups([group1.objectId, group2.objectId]).then(function (groupIds) {
    // groupIds is an array containing parent groups objectId's
}, function (err) { 
    ... 
});

Applications

Creating and initializing an entity instance

var app = new AadGraph.Application(client.context);
var identifierUrl = 'https://contoso.com/app';
app.displayName = 'MyApp';
app.identifierUris = [identifierUrl];

Getting deleted applications

client.deletedDirectoryObjects.asApplications().fetchAll().then(function(apps) { ... }, function(err) { ... })

Restoring deleted applications

identifierUris argument can be passed to restore method if you need to update the old value.

For example:

client.deletedDirectoryObjects.asApplications().fetchAll().then(function (apps) {
    apps[0].restore().then(function (restoredApp) {
        apps[1].restore(['https://contoso.com/app']).then(function (secondRestoredApp) { 
            ... 
        }, function(err) { ... });
    }, function(err) { ... });
}, function(err) { ... });

Directory Schema Extensions

Creating and initializing an entity instance

var property = new AadGraph.ExtensionProperty();
property.name = 'skypeId';
property.dataType = 'String';
property.targetObjects = property.targetObjects.concat('User');

Adding an extension

client.applications.addApplication(that.createApp()).then(function (app) {
    app.extensionProperties.addExtensionProperty(extensionRaw).then(function (extension) {
        // The name should become a fully-qualified extension property name like 'extension_ab603c56068041afb2f6832e2a17e237_skypeId'
        console.log(extension.name);
        ...
    });
});

Writing and reading an extension property

...
user['extension_ab603c56068041afb2f6832e2a17e237_skypeId'] = 'live:userSkypeId';
user.update().then(function() {
    client.users.getUser(user.objectId).fetch().then(function (updatedUser) {
        console.log(updatedUser['extension_ab603c56068041afb2f6832e2a17e237_skypeId']);
    });
});

Note: extension properties reading and writing are not currently supported by JS SDK.

Creating and initializing other entity types

Creating a service principal for an app

var principal = new AadGraph.ServicePrincipal();
principal.appId = app.appId;

Creating an oauth2PermissionGrant

var grant = new AadGraph.OAuth2PermissionGrant(client.context);
grant.resourceId = resourceId;
grant.clientId = clientId;
grant.principalId = principalId;
grant.consentType = 'Principal';
grant.startTime = '2014-03-01';
grant.expiryTime = '2014-04-01';

Creating a device

var device = new AadGraph.Device();
device.displayName = 'myDevice';
device.deviceId = deviceId;
device.accountEnabled = true;
var altSecId = new AadGraph.AlternativeSecurityId();
altSecId.key = btoa(key);
altSecId.type = type;
// Triggering _identityProviderChanged to become true as this field is required in request
altSecId.identityProvider = null;
device.alternativeSecurityIds = [altSecId];
device.deviceOSType = OSType;
device.deviceOSVersion = OSVersion;

Creating an appRoleAssignment

var assignment = new AadGraph.AppRoleAssignment();
assignment.id = id;
assignment.resourceId = resourceId;
assignment.principalId = principalId;
