The MSAL library for iOS and macOS gives your app the ability to begin using the Microsoft identity platform by supporting Azure B2C using industry standard OAuth2 and OpenID Connect. This sample demonstrates all the normal lifecycles your application should experience, including:
- How to get a token
- How to refresh a token
- How to call your backend REST API service
- How to clear your user from your application
do {
// Create an instance of MSALPublicClientApplication with proper config
let authority = try MSALB2CAuthority(url: URL(string: "<your-authority-here>")!)
let pcaConfig = MSALPublicClientApplicationConfig(clientId: "<your-client-id-here>", redirectUri: nil, authority: authority)
let application = try MSALPublicClientApplication(configuration: pcaConfig)
let viewController = self /*replace with your main presentation controller here */
let webViewParameters = MSALWebviewParameters(parentViewController: viewController)
let interactiveParameters = MSALInteractiveTokenParameters(scopes: ["<enter-your-scope-here>"], webviewParameters: webViewParameters)
application.acquireToken(with: interactiveParameters) { (result, error) in
guard let result = result else {
print(error!) /* MSAL token acquisition failed, check error information */
return
}
let accessToken = result.accessToken
let account = result.account
/* MSAL token acquisition succeeded, use access token or check account */
}
}
catch {
print(error) /* MSALPublicClientApplication creation failed, check error information */
}
You will need to have a B2C client application registered with Microsoft. Follow the instructions here. Make sure you make note of your client ID
, and the name of the policies you create. Once done, you will need add the redirect URI of msal<your-client-id-here>://auth
.
We use Carthage for package management during the preview period of MSAL. This package manager integrates very nicely with XCode while maintaining our ability to make changes to the library. The sample is set up to use Carthage.
- Install Carthage on your Mac using a download from their website or if using Homebrew
brew install carthage
. - We have already created a
Cartfile
that lists the MSAL library for this project on Github. We use the/dev
branch. - Run
carthage bootstrap --platform iOS
. This will fetch dependencies into aCarthage/Checkouts
folder, then build the MSAL library. - On your application targets’ “General” settings tab, in the “Linked Frameworks and Libraries” section, drag and drop the
MSAL.framework
from theCarthage/Build
folder on disk. - On your application targets’ “Build Phases” settings tab, click the “+” icon and choose “New Run Script Phase”. Create a Run Script in which you specify your shell (ex:
/bin/sh
), add the following contents to the script area below the shell:
/usr/local/bin/carthage copy-frameworks
and add the paths to the frameworks you want to use under “Input Files”, e.g.:
$(SRCROOT)/Carthage/Build/iOS/MSAL.framework
This script works around an App Store submission bug triggered by universal binaries and ensures that necessary bitcode-related files and dSYMs are copied when archiving.
With the debug information copied into the built products directory, Xcode will be able to symbolicate the stack trace whenever you stop at a breakpoint. This will also enable you to step through third-party code in the debugger.
When archiving your application for submission to the App Store or TestFlight, Xcode will also copy these files into the dSYMs subdirectory of your application’s .xcarchive
bundle.
- Add your application's redirect URI scheme to added in the portal to your
info.plist
file. It will be in the format ofmsal<client-id>
<key>CFBundleURLTypes</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>CFBundleTypeRole</key>
<string>Editor</string>
<key>CFBundleURLName</key>
<string>$(PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER)</string>
<key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key>
<array>
<string>msalyour-client-id-here</string>
</array>
</dict>
</array>
- Configure your application defaults
In the ViewControler.swift
file, update the variables at the top of this file with the information for your tenant.
let kTenantName = "<tenant>.onmicrosoft.com" // Your tenant name
let kClientID = "<your-client-id>" // Your client ID from the portal when you created your application
let kSignupOrSigninPolicy = "<your-signin-policy>" // Your signup and sign-in policy you created in the portal
let kEditProfilePolicy = "<your-edit-profile-policy>" // Your edit policy you created in the portal
let kGraphURI = "<Your backend API>" // This is your backend API that you've configured to accept your app's tokens
let kScopes: [String] = ["<Your backend API>/demo.read"] // This is a scope that you've configured your backend API to look for.
We use Stack Overflow to provide support using tag MSAL and tag azure-ad-b2c. We highly recommend you ask your questions on Stack Overflow first and browse existing issues to see if someone has asked your question before.
If you find and bug or have a feature request, please raise the issue on GitHub Issues.

This project has adopted the Microsoft Open Source Code of Conduct. For more information see the Code of Conduct FAQ or contact [email protected] with any additional questions or comments.
This library controls how users sign-in and access services. We recommend you always take the latest version of our library in your app when possible. We use semantic versioning so you can control the risk associated with updating your app. As an example, always downloading the latest minor version number (e.g. x.y.x) ensures you get the latest security and feature enhanements but our API surface remains the same. You can always see the latest version and release notes under the Releases tab of GitHub.
If you find a security issue with our libraries or services please report it to [email protected] with as much detail as possible. Your submission may be eligible for a bounty through the Microsoft Bounty program. Please do not post security issues to GitHub Issues or any other public site. We will contact you shortly upon receiving the information. We encourage you to get notifications of when security incidents occur by visiting this page and subscribing to Security Advisory Alerts.
