# Configure Azure Entra External ID Authentication for Blazor Web App

**[.NET](https://daily.dev/sources/dotnetsquad)** · [@abhiroop43](https://daily.dev/abhiroop43) · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Azure Entra External ID (successor to Azure B2C) can be configured for Blazor Web Apps by installing Microsoft.Identity.Web packages, setting up External Identities with user flows and app registrations in Azure, configuring authentication settings in appsettings.json with tenant ID set to 'consumers', and adding authentication middleware to Program.cs. Pages can be protected using the [Authorize] attribute, and AuthorizeView components enable login/logout functionality. The guide includes specific redirect URI configuration, client secret management, and token acquisition setup for downstream API calls.
