Issues Login In

When logging in on Android it indicates "Authorizing..." but does not authorize. Eventually it goes back to the login screen.

Is the Blazor web server project running? In VS, right click and select Debug - Start without debugging. Then start the client.

I needed to update the project and now it is running.

Fantastic work.

IOS displays the login screen but when I log in it just resets the form. It won't log in. Any thoughts?

Note: If I supply an incorrect password, IOS indicates such. but with correct credentials it just clears the form.

Hi. I have determined that it is because I am using visual studio on my windows machine with the IOS emulator and discovered that even though the emulator is viewable on windows, it is resolving the connection to the endpoint from the MAC Book. Hence it can't find the endpoint to authenticate.

If you run the project on the Mac directly (with the VS Code MAUI extension) to the simulator does it work?

[charlesmatvchuk]

I haven't tried but I could. Will have to install VS Code or VS 2022 on it and then go from there to test. Will let you know.

Quick question. Any idea why there is not a prebuilt example of how to do MAUI Blazor Hybrid with a Web App and Microsoft Entra ID External? I have scoured the web and there are a multitude of people searching for the same thing. Have to try and piece meal it together. Local Identity is good for one of our projects but others use either Internal Entra ID or External Entra ID. Will have to work on that next week once this is done.

I hear you loud and clear! Entra ID is my next sample :-)

For MAUI Android/iOS this should work: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/external-id/customers/tutorial-mobile-app-maui-sign-in-prepare-tenant
But there are issues with Windows per AzureAD/microsoft-authentication-library-for-dotnet#4933
And MSAL is not still supported on Mac Catalyst AFAIK.

Beth,
That would be fantastic. I have followed your GH and have used some of your examples to provide me answers to challenges.

Maui Blazor Hybrid is fantastic, but the Authorization is clunky at best. Web and Mobile would be fantastic.

Using Entra ID in a Blazor Server Application is a piece of cake.

What would of been phenomenal is if VS 2022 would just scaffold the authentication with RBAC and all we would need to do is put in our TenantID and ClientID. The adoption would be phenomenal.
