Register the REST API Service Windows Azure Active Directory

Register the client and service applications in AAD and update the sample

  • In the Azure AD portal, select your tenant.
  • Click Add at the bottom of the page
  • Enter “TodoListService” as the name
  • Choose the "Web application or Web API" option.
  • Enter http://localhost:8888/login as the Sign-In URL
  • Enter “http://localhost:8888/” as the App ID URI and click next.

IMPORTANT: When the page is displayed with your Application configured, make sure you make note of the Client ID field as you will need this for configuration.

What did I just do?

You just told your tenant that you are hosting a webservice on a particular URI and have requested that Windows Azure AD allow users of Windows Azure Active Directory who have their own organizational accounts to access this REST API service through their client applications they may use. Client applications will also need to be configured to communicate to the REST API service and be registered with Windows Azure AD. You can learn how to do that through one of the ADAL library walkthroughs.

You can now build your REST API service using the next step of the walkthrough or you can simply configure the existing server
