Setting up ADFS for a Web App

Question

Following scenario: I have a web app running in the MS Azure cloud The app provides a user logon with username and password The new requirement is to provide the AD FS SSO for the web app, so that once a user has logged on the Windows machine, her AD credentials can be used to log on the web app.

Can anyone help with some background information and step-by-step instruction. Thank you.

To connect the web app to ADFS, you could try to use the scripted setup for automated integration or use the manual setup to step-by-step. For the details, you could refer to the docs.

Hope this can help you.

Thank you, will I need to do changes on my web app or is there a way around? – vaio Aug 06 '18 at 20:43

Yes - you can do this by federating ADFS and Azure AD.

That provides SSO and lets the users authenticate on the intranet.

Do you have to use ADFS? If not, pass-through is a good alternative.

I looked at pass-through. It looks interesting and could potentially work for us. Will I need to do changes on the web app? – vaio Aug 06 '18 at 23:22
No - if your app. uses OpenID Connect that is the standard for Azure. – rbrayb Aug 06 '18 at 23:36
