Azure AD B2C Login Problems

Question

I am trying out the sample code on GitHub called active-directory-b2c-dotnet-webapp-and-webapi and when I run it against the AD B2C directory in the sample it works fine but I'm having an issue trying it out against my own AD B2C directory. I get the following error:

The application with ID 'xxx' cannot get an ID token either because the openid scope was not requested or the application is not authorized for it

Isn't the openid scope included automatically? I setup a Web App and a Web API app as per the instructions provided. When I look at the scopes that the Web App has access to, the openid scope is not listed there. Is this something I need to add manually?

Answer 1

When we change the API permission for an app, the openid permission gets overwritten. We can re-enable it if this happens. The option will be available at API Permissions blade under https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_RegisteredApps/ApplicationsListBlade.

Open the API Permissions at the above link, Add a Permission, Select Microsoft Graph --> Select Openid and save. There you are! :)
