MS Identity Azure app registered but sends unauthorized_client in implicit flow

Question

I have registered an app in Azure for Microsoft Identity platform. I configured it to allow MS Accounts (e.g. outlook.com) and have basically done everything in a few of the quickstarts online here and here (except for "add credentials to your web app"). I have also checked the boxes that enable implicit flow.

I redirect my React application to the URL to sign in (using implicit flow), I get to enter my username but then I see

unauthorized_client: The client does not exist or is not enabled for consumers. If you are the application developer, configure a new application through the App Registrations in the Azure Portal at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2083908

Like I mentioned above, I've gone through several quick starts and read about implicit flow here and followed their examples for my code.

I also tried just deleting the app registration and starting over. No luck.

JS Code attempting to implement Implicit Flow

JS code that redirects the browser to a Url that looks like Microsoft's first example on their implicit flow page

goSignIn() {
    const tenant = 'common'; // (for us with MS accounts)
    const clientId = '*****';
    const redir = encodeURIComponent('http://localhost:3000/signin');
    const nonce = Math.round(Math.random() * 10000, 0);
    const uriTemplate = 'https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant}/oauth2/v2.0/authorize?client_id={clientId}&response_type=id_token+token&redirect_uri={redirect}&scope=openid&response_mode=fragment&state={state}&nonce={nonce}';
    const filledTemplate = uriTemplate
      .replace('{tenant}', tenant)
      .replace('{clientId', clientId)
      .replace('{redirect}', redir)
      .replace('{nonce}', nonce)
      .replace('{state}', nonce);
    console.log(filledTemplate);
    window.location = filledTemplate;
  }

App Configuration in Azure:

Azure -> Identity -> App Registrations -> MyApp -> Authentication

• Redirect Uri: http://localhost:3000/signin (React app runs on 3000 and I have a route configured for /signin)
• Not using any suggested Redirects.
• Checked Implicit checkboxes for ID Token and Access Token
• Live SDK support enabled
• Supported account types is set to "Accounts in any organizational directory and personal Microsoft accounts (e.g. Skype, Xbox, Outlook.com)"

Azure -> Identity -> App Registrations -> MyApp -> API Permissions

• MS Graph
  • User.Read
  • Email
  • Profile
  • openid

From the docs I read, I thought I had done enough to the id token. I'm not sure what tweak must be made in order to get it to work.

Answer 1

I experienced an issue like this one. The mistake I made has to do with the App ID: when you create the client secret the Azure UI will present the secret and the secret ID. This secret ID is not the one to use in your app's configuration. Rather, you need the Application ID found on the Overview page.

I imagine that there are many configuration problems which can produce this error message. In general: pay close attention to the App ID, if the error is that the app is not found.

Answer 2

It seems that you have done enough to get the token. I have tested this on my side, it works well. Here I provide you with my screenshot for you to check again.

Also, here is my working request url, you can login with your msa to have a test.

https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/authorize?
client_id=5fd66168-7ba3-4bbc-a155-bff662eed9f7
&response_type=id_token+token
&redirect_uri=http://localhost:3000/signin
&scope=openid
&response_mode=fragment
&state=12345
&nonce=678910
