Authentication via Microsoft Entra ID gives error

[RobineSavert]

Current behavior

We have tried for a week to implement the authentication with Microsoft Entra ID and finally got a bug with more info.

We do not want to connect with username/password, as we are not permitted in our company for obvious security reasons, so we have to use msal.loginRedirect or msal.loginPopup from the '@azure/msal-browser' package.

I attached the error in a print screen:

BrowserAuthError: redirect_in_iframe: Redirects are not supported for iframed or brokered applications.

So how can we authenticate using Microsoft without using password/username?

Desired behavior

Connect with Microsoft Entra ID without username/password

Test code to reproduce

       msalInstance.loginPopup(requestObj)
        .then(async loginResponse => {
          if (loginResponse.account != null) {
            await loginWithAzureAd(loginResponse, skipRetrySignIn);
            resolve(true);
          }
        }).catch(async (error) => {
          console.log(error)
       }).catch(() => {
          reject();
        })
      });

});

@RobineSavert We haven't investigated this authentication provider specifically. Many logins prevent running within an iframe, and this seems to be the case for this one, so I don't expect you can test the login in this manner with this provider.

Ok Jennifer, thanks for replying! The problem is not actually testing the authentication but our whole app is behind the login, so we cannot test our app with Cypress without being able to log in..
