Advanced tools
The Microsoft Graph Toolkit Msal 2.0 Provider
The Microsoft Graph Toolkit (mgt) library is a collection of authentication providers and UI components powered by Microsoft Graph.
The @microsoft/mgt-msal2-provider
package exposes the Msal2Provider
class which uses msal-browser to sign in users and acquire tokens to use with Microsoft Graph.
Install the packages
npm install @microsoft/mgt-element @microsoft/mgt-msal2-provider
Initialize the provider in code with Msal2Config
import {Providers, LoginType} from '@microsoft/mgt-element';
import {Msal2Provider, PromptType} from '@microsoft/mgt-msal2-provider';
// initialize the auth provider globally
Providers.globalProvider = new Msal2Provider({
clientId: 'clientId',
scopes?: string[],
authority?: string,
redirectUri?: string,
loginType?: LoginType, // LoginType.Popup or LoginType.Redirect (redirect is default)
prompt?: PromptType, // PromptType.CONSENT, PromptType.LOGIN or PromptType.SELECT_ACCOUNT
sid?: string, // Session ID
loginHint?: string,
domainHint?: string,
options?: Configuration // msal js Configuration object
});
Initialize the provider in code with Msal2PublicClientApplicationConfig
if a PublicClientApplication
is already instantiated. For example, msal-angular
instantiates PublicClientApplication
on startup.
import {Providers, LoginType} from '@microsoft/mgt-element';
import {Msal2Provider, PromptType} from '@microsoft/mgt-msal2-provider';
import {PublicClientApplication} from '@azure/msal-browser';
// initialize the auth provider globally
Providers.globalProvider = new Msal2Provider({
publicClientApplication: PublicClientApplication,
scopes?: string[],
authority?: string,
redirectUri?: string,
loginType?: LoginType, // LoginType.Popup or LoginType.Redirect (redirect is default)
prompt?: PromptType, // PromptType.CONSENT, PromptType.LOGIN or PromptType.SELECT_ACCOUNT
sid?: string, // Session ID
loginHint?: string,
domainHint?: string,
options?: Configuration // msal js Configuration object
});
Alternatively, initialize the provider in html (only client-id
is required):
<script type="module" src="../node_modules/@microsoft/mgt-msal2-provider/dist/es6/index.js" />
<mgt-msal2-provider client-id="<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>"
login-type="redirect/popup"
scopes="user.read,people.read"
redirect-uri="https://my.redirect/uri"
authority="">
</mgt-msal2-provider>
See provider usage documentation to learn about how to use the providers with the mgt components, to sign in/sign out, get access tokens, call Microsoft Graph, and more.
