Description

Hi Team,

We are using Azure AD Authentication to validate users after successful verification it is navigating to url with same pathname but not carrying query params

For example :

redirecturi : https://www.testurl.com/ (Configured in App registration under Auzre portal)
Here it will navigate azure ad login page after successful login it will navigate to above redirecturi.

Problem : Now If user is trying to access specific document or specific url as mentioned below (If user is not authenticated)

https://www.testurl.com/abc?id=100

User should navigate to Azure AD login page >> after successful login >> it should navigate to user requested URL for example above URL (https://www.testurl.com/abc?id=100), But it is navigating to https://www.testurl.com/abc.

How to handle this type of scenario to navigate to desired URL?

MSAL Configuration

const msalConfig = {
  auth: {
    clientId: REACT_APP_CLIENT_ID, // This is the ONLY mandatory field that you need to supply.
    authority: REACT_APP_AUTHORITY, // Defaults to "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common"
    redirectUri: window.location.href.includes("http://localhost:3000/")
      ? "http://localhost:3000/"
      : REACT_APP_REDIRECT_URI, // You must register this URI on Azure Portal/App Registration. Defaults to window.location.origin
    // postLogoutRedirectUri: `${process.env["REACT_APP_AAD_APP_REDIRECT_URI"]}`, // Indicates the page to navigate after logout.
    navigateToLoginRequestUrl: false, // If "true", will navigate back to the original request location before processing the auth code response.
  },
  cache: {
    cacheLocation: "sessionStorage", // Configures cache location. "sessionStorage" is more secure, but "localStorage" gives you SSO between tabs.
    storeAuthStateInCookie: false, // Set this to "true" if you are having issues on IE11 or Edge
  },
  system: {
    loggerOptions: {
      loggerCallback: (level, message, containsPii) => {
        if (containsPii) {
          return;
        }
        switch (level) {
          case LogLevel.Error:
            console.error(message);
            return;
          case LogLevel.Info:
            console.info(message);
            return;
          case LogLevel.Verbose:
            console.debug(message);
            return;
          case LogLevel.Warning:
            console.warn(message);
            return;
        }
      },
    },
  },
};

Relevant Code Snippets

async function handleLogin() {
    //loginRedirect || loginPopup
    sessionStorage.setItem("authMethod", "SSO");

    // Adding Source code to prevent browser errors
    await instance.handleRedirectPromise();
    const accounts = instance.getAllAccounts();

    if (accounts.length === 0) {
      //This will be executed if there's no user authenticated
      let request = { ...loginRequest, state: window.location.href };
      await instance.loginRedirect(request).catch((error) => {
        console.error(error);
      });
    }
  } using this code in unauthenticated template

  try {
        await msalInstance.initialize();
        const response = await msalInstance.handleRedirectPromise();
        if (response) {
          const originalUrl = response.state;
          if (originalUrl) {
            window.location.href = originalUrl;
          }
        }
      } catch (error) {
        console.error(error);
      }
    } using this after redirection

@jo-arroyo hi could you help me out with this.

[tnorling]

You've set navigateToLoginRequestUrl config param to false which disables the behavior you're looking for. Either remove this config (default is true) or explicitly set it to true.
