Microsoft Azure Active Directory Passport.js Plug-In


npm version

passport-azure-ad is a collection of Passport Strategies to help you integrate with Azure Active Directory. It includes OpenID Connect, WS-Federation, and SAML-P authentication and authorization. These providers let you integrate your Node app with Microsoft Azure AD so you can use its many features, including web single sign-on (WebSSO), Endpoint Protection with OAuth, and JWT token issuance and validation.

1. Installation

$ npm install passport-firebase-azure-ad

2. Usage

This package is intended to allow users to authenticate and authorise Microsoft home, school and work accounts while working in a firebase environment. This is achieved by altering Microsoft's original passport-azure-ad npm package to store the time and encrypted cookie in the "__session" cookie with the "azure" prefix, current time and date + encrypted cookie as the value. In firebase, cookies can only be titled "__session" and anything else is removed. Authenticating and authorising should be unchanged but if you are using firebase, you must have useCookieInsteadOFSession and cookie encrypted keys set in your OIDCStrategy.

passport.use(new OIDCStrategy({
...
...
    useCookieInsteadOfSession: true,
    cookieEncryptionKeys: [
            {key: "12345678901234567890123456789012", iv: "012345678901"}
        ]
...
});

Note: key must be a string of length 32 (32 bytes) and iv must be a string of length 12 (12 bytes).

3. Full Documentation

Original passport-azure-ad module can be found on github: Here. Please refer to this for full documentation on how to utilise passport-azure-ad. Almost everything should apply to this module as I have only made a small modification.

4. Note

I am stil a student and don't have a lot of experience yet and there may be a better way to authorise/authenticate microsoft azure users using vanilla passport-azure-ad and firebase but I struggled to find a solution until I made this. Feel free to contact me about any tips you might have for me or any problems you face using this package. Thank you.
