Description
Currently, MSAL with Managed Identity does not expose any API claims API. With CAE (Continuous Access Evaluation) being enabled by default, we need to implement a mechanism to bypass the cache if claims are detected in the token request.

Steps to Reproduce:

  • Enable CAE by default in MSAL with Managed Identity.
  • Make a token request with claims present.

Observe that the cache is not bypassed, leading to potential stale token usage.

Expected Behavior:
When claims are present in the token request, the cache should be bypassed to ensure that the latest token is used, in line with CAE requirements.

Proposed solution

  • Expose the claims API in MSAL for MI
  • Expose Claims to MI Assertion Provider for FIC
  • By-pass cache when claims are present

note : msi v1 endpoint is unchanged so there is no need to pass any claims to the endpoint itself, this feature is done so MSAL will bypass the cache.
