# Authentication through Microsoft
## Overview
One of the login options for dex uses the Microsoft OAuth2 flow to identify the
end user through their Microsoft account.
When a client redeems a refresh token through dex, dex will re-query Microsoft
to update user information in the ID Token. To do this, __dex stores a readonly
Microsoft access and refresh tokens in its backing datastore.__ Users that
reject dex's access through Microsoft will also revoke all dex clients which
authenticated them through Microsoft.
### Caveats
`groups` claim in dex is only supported when `tenant` is specified in Microsoft
connector config. In order for dex to be able to list groups on behalf of
logged in user, an explicit organization administrator consent is required. To
obtain the consent do the following:
- when registering dex application on https://apps.dev.microsoft.com add
an explicit `Directory.Read.All` permission to the list of __Delegated
Permissions__
- open the following link in your browser and log in under organization
administrator account:
`https://login.microsoftonline.com/<tenant>/adminconsent?client_id=<dex client id>`
## Configuration
Register a new application on https://apps.dev.microsoft.com via `Add an app`
ensuring the callback URL is `(dex issuer)/callback`. For example if dex
is listening at the non-root path `https://auth.example.com/dex` the callback
would be `https://auth.example.com/dex/callback`.
The following is an example of a configuration for `examples/config-dev.yaml`:
```yaml
connectors:
- type: microsoft
# Required field for connector id.
id: microsoft
# Required field for connector name.
name: Microsoft
config:
# Credentials can be string literals or pulled from the environment.
clientID: $MICROSOFT_APPLICATION_ID
clientSecret: $MICROSOFT_CLIENT_SECRET
redirectURI: http://127.0.0.1:5556/dex/callback
```
`tenant` configuration parameter controls what kinds of accounts may be
authenticated in dex. By default, all types of Microsoft accounts (consumers
and organizations) can authenticate in dex via Microsoft. To change this, set
the `tenant` parameter to one of the following:
- `common`- both personal and business/school accounts can authenticate in dex
via Microsoft (default)
- `consumers` - only personal accounts can authenticate in dex
- `organizations` - only business/school accounts can authenticate in dex
- `<tenant uuid>` or `<tenant name>` - only accounts belonging to specific
tenant identified by either `<tenant uuid>` or `<tenant name>` can
authenticate in dex
For example, the following snippet configures dex to only allow business/school
accounts:
```yaml
connectors:
- type: microsoft
# Required field for connector id.
id: microsoft
# Required field for connector name.
name: Microsoft
config:
# Credentials can be string literals or pulled from the environment.
clientID: $MICROSOFT_APPLICATION_ID
clientSecret: $MICROSOFT_CLIENT_SECRET
redirectURI: http://127.0.0.1:5556/dex/callback
tenant: organizations
```
### Groups
When the `groups` claim is present in a request to dex __and__ `tenant` is
configured, dex will query Microsoft API to obtain a list of groups the user is
a member of. `onlySecurityGroups` configuration option restricts the list to
include only security groups. By default all groups (security, Office 365,
mailing lists) are included.
It is possible to require a user to be a member of a particular group in order
to be successfully authenticated in dex. For example, with the following
configuration file only the users who are members of at least one of the listed
groups will be able to successfully authenticate in dex:
```yaml
connectors:
- type: microsoft
# Required field for connector id.
id: microsoft
# Required field for connector name.
name: Microsoft
config:
# Credentials can be string literals or pulled from the environment.
clientID: $MICROSOFT_APPLICATION_ID
clientSecret: $MICROSOFT_CLIENT_SECRET
redirectURI: http://127.0.0.1:5556/dex/callback
tenant: myorg.onmicrosoft.com
groups:
- developers
- devops
```
