SSO Login into Drupal using Microsoft Entra ID as an OAuth / OpenID Connect Provider
Overview
Drupal Microsoft Entra ID SSO integration will allow the users to log in to the Drupal site using the Microsoft Entra ID Credentials. This SSO integration is achieved by the miniOrange OAuth Client module which uses the OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect (OIDC) Protocol. This module is compatible with Drupal 7, Drupal 8, Drupal 9, Drupal 10, and Drupal 11.
In this document, we will help you configure the Single Sign-On login using the OAuth protocol between the Drupal site and the Microsoft Entra ID.
