In general follow the steps below. With the exception that sensitive information should be added in .env file instead of config.js.
So just add a .env
file to project root with following keys:
clientID=
clientSecret=
identityMetadata=
See original instructions below on how to get the values for the .env file

This sample demonstrates how to set up OpenId Connect authentication in a web application built using Node.js with Express. The sample is designed to run on any platform.
To run this sample you will need the following:
-
Install Node.js from http://nodejs.org/
-
Either a Microsoft account or Office 365 for business account
-
Sign in to the Azure portal using either a work or school account, or a personal Microsoft account.
-
If your account is present in more than one Azure AD tenant:
- Select your profile from the menu on the top right corner of the page, and then Switch directory.
- Change your session to the Azure AD tenant where you want to create your application.
-
Navigate to Azure Active Directory > App registrations (Preview) to register your app.
-
Select New registration.
-
When the Register an application page appears, enter your app's registration information:
- In the Name section, enter a meaningful name that will be displayed to users of the app. For example: MyWebApp
- In the Supported account types section, select Accounts in any organizational directory and personal Microsoft accounts (e.g. Skype, Xbox, Outlook.com).
If there are more than one redirect URIs, you'll need to add these from the Authentication tab later after the app has been successfully created.
-
Select Register to create the app.
-
On the app's Overview page, find the Application (client) ID value and record it for later. You'll need this value to configure the application later in this project.
-
In the list of pages for the app, select Authentication.
- In the Redirect URIs section, select Web in the combo-box and enter the following redirect URI:
http://localhost:3000/auth/openid/return
- In the Advanced settings section, set Logout URL to
http://localhost:3000
. - In the Advanced settings > Implicit grant section, check ID tokens as this sample requires the Implicit grant flow to be enabled to sign-in the user.
- In the Redirect URIs section, select Web in the combo-box and enter the following redirect URI:
-
Select Save.
-
From the Certificates & secrets page, in the Client secrets section, choose New client secret.
- Enter a key description (for instance app secret).
- Select a key duration of either In 1 year, In 2 years, or Never Expires.
- When you click the Add button, the key value will be displayed. Copy the key value and save it in a safe location.
You'll need this key later to configure the application. This key value will not be displayed again, nor retrievable by any other means, so record it as soon as it is visible from the Azure portal.
Next, clone the sample repo and install the NPM modules.
From your shell or command line:
$ git clone [email protected]:AzureADQuickStarts/AppModelv2-WebApp-OpenIDConnect-nodejs.git
or
$ git clone https://github.com/AzureADQuickStarts/AppModelv2-WebApp-OpenIDConnect-nodejs.git
From the project root directory, run the command:
$ npm install
Provide the parameters in exports.creds
in config.js as instructed.
- Update
<tenant_name>
inexports.identityMetadata
with the Azure AD tenant name of the format *.onmicrosoft.com. - Update
exports.clientID
with the Application Id noted from app registration. - Update
exports.clientSecret
with the Application secret noted from app registration. - Update
exports.redirectUrl
with the Redirect URI noted from app registration.
Optional configuration for production apps:
-
Update
exports.destroySessionUrl
in config.js, if you want to use a differentpost_logout_redirect_uri
. -
Set
exports.useMongoDBSessionStore
in config.js to true, if you want to use use mongoDB or other compatible session stores. The default session store in this sample isexpress-session
. Note that the default session store is not suitable for production. -
Update
exports.databaseUri
, if you want to use mongoDB session store and a different database URI. -
Update
exports.mongoDBSessionMaxAge
. Here you can specify how long you want to keep a session in mongoDB. The unit is second(s).
-
Start mongoDB service. If you are using mongoDB session store in this app, you have to install mongoDB and start the service first. If you are using the default session store, you can skip this step.
-
Run the app using the following command from your command line.
$ node app.js
Is the server output hard to understand?: We use bunyan
for logging in this sample. The console won't make much sense to you unless you also install bunyan and run the server like above but pipe it through the bunyan binary:
$ npm install -g bunyan
$ node app.js | bunyan
You will have a server successfully running on http://localhost:3000
