  4. On the Register an application screen, enter the following:
    1. Name: Emtrain
    2. Supported account types: We recommend choosing Accounts in this organizational directory only (Default directory only - Single tenant). This will limit the users to only those who are configured within your company's default Entra ID directory.
    3. Redirect URI: From the dropdown, select Single-page application (SPA), then enter the URL for your Emtrain site, for example https://yourcompany.app.emtrain.com

Review

Microsoft Social Login works differently depending on whether you have Self-Signup enabled on your account. Review the guidelines below to understand who will be able to use the Microsoft Social Login option on your account:

If Microsoft Social Login is enabled and the account does NOT have Self-Signup enabled:

Users first need to be added to the Emtrain roster to be able to sign in with Microsoft. Any user who has been added to the Emtrain roster with an email address that is part of that company’s Microsoft workspace will be able to log in with Microsoft Social Login.

If a user has not been added to the roster, they will not be able to log in with Microsoft, even if their account is part of the company’s Microsoft workspace.

If Microsoft Social Login is enabled and the account HAS Self-Signup enabled:

Users will be able to sign up for or log into the Emtrain account with any Microsoft account, including personal outlook.com, hotmail.com, live.com, or msn.com addresses.
