Azure Auth - Microsoft Entra ID for React + Cloudflare Workers

Package Versions: @azure/msal-react@5.0.2, @azure/msal-browser@5.0.2, jose@6.1.3 Breaking Changes: MSAL v4→v5 migration (January 2026), Azure AD B2C sunset (May 2025 - new signups blocked, existing until 2030), ADAL retirement (Sept 2025 - complete) Last Updated: 2026-01-21

Architecture Overview

┌─────────────────────┐ ┌──────────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────────┐ │ React SPA │────▶│ Microsoft Entra ID │────▶│ Cloudflare Worker │ │ @azure/msal-react │ │ (login.microsoft) │ │ jose JWT validation│ └─────────────────────┘ └──────────────────────┘ └─────────────────────┘ │ │ │ Authorization Code + PKCE │ │ (access_token, id_token) │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ Bearer token in Authorization header Key Constraint: MSAL.js does NOT work in Cloudflare Workers (relies on browser/Node.js APIs). Use jose library for backend token validation.

1. Install Dependencies

# Frontend (React SPA) npm install @azure/msal-react @azure/msal-browser # Backend (Cloudflare Workers) npm install jose

2. Azure Portal Setup

Go to Microsoft Entra ID → App registrations → New registration Set Redirect URI to http://localhost:5173 (SPA type) Note the Application (client) ID and Directory (tenant) ID Under Authentication: Enable Access tokens and ID tokens Add production redirect URI Under API permissions: Add User.Read (Microsoft Graph) Grant admin consent if required

Configuration (src/auth/msal-config.ts)

import { Configuration, LogLevel } from "@azure/msal-browser"; export const msalConfig: Configuration = { auth: { clientId: import.meta.env.VITE_AZURE_CLIENT_ID, authority: `https://login.microsoftonline.com/${import.meta.env.VITE_AZURE_TENANT_ID}`, redirectUri: window.location.origin, postLogoutRedirectUri: window.location.origin, navigateToLoginRequestUrl: true, }, cache: { cacheLocation: "localStorage", // or "sessionStorage" storeAuthStateInCookie: true, // Required for Safari/Edge issues }, system: { loggerOptions: { logLevel: LogLevel.Warning, loggerCallback: (level, message) => { if (level === LogLevel.Error) console.error(message); }, }, }, }; // Scopes for token requests export const loginRequest = { scopes: ["User.Read", "openid", "profile", "email"], }; // Scopes for API calls (add your API scope here) export const apiRequest = { scopes: [`api://${import.meta.env.VITE_AZURE_CLIENT_ID}/access_as_user`], };

MsalProvider Setup (src/main.tsx)

import React from "react"; import ReactDOM from "react-dom/client"; import { PublicClientApplication, EventType } from "@azure/msal-browser"; import { MsalProvider } from "@azure/msal-react"; import { msalConfig } from "./auth/msal-config"; import App from "./App"; // CRITICAL: Initialize MSAL outside component tree to prevent re-instantiation const msalInstance = new PublicClientApplication(msalConfig); // Handle redirect promise on page load msalInstance.initialize().then(() => { // Set active account after redirect // IMPORTANT: Use getAllAccounts() (returns array), NOT getActiveAccount() (returns single account or null) const accounts = msalInstance.getAllAccounts(); if (accounts.length > 0) { msalInstance.setActiveAccount(accounts[0]); } // Listen for sign-in events msalInstance.addEventCallback((event) => { if (event.eventType === EventType.LOGIN_SUCCESS && event.payload) { const account = (event.payload as { account: any }).account; msalInstance.setActiveAccount(account); } }); ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById("root")!).render( <React.StrictMode> <MsalProvider instance={msalInstance}> <App /> </MsalProvider> </React.StrictMode> ); });

Protected Route Component

import { useMsal, useIsAuthenticated } from "@azure/msal-react"; import { InteractionStatus } from "@azure/msal-browser"; import { loginRequest } from "./msal-config"; export function ProtectedRoute({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) { const { instance, inProgress } = useMsal(); const isAuthenticated = useIsAuthenticated(); // Wait for MSAL to finish any in-progress operations if (inProgress !== InteractionStatus.None) { return <div>Loading...</div>; } if (!isAuthenticated) { // Trigger login redirect instance.loginRedirect(loginRequest); return <div>Redirecting to login...</div>; } return <>{children}</>; }

Acquiring Tokens for API Calls

import { useMsal } from "@azure/msal-react"; import { InteractionRequiredAuthError } from "@azure/msal-browser"; import { apiRequest } from "./msal-config"; export function useApiToken() { const { instance, accounts } = useMsal(); async function getAccessToken(): Promise<string | null> { if (accounts.length === 0) return null; const request = { ...apiRequest, account: accounts[0], }; try { // Try silent token acquisition first const response = await instance.acquireTokenSilent(request); return response.accessToken; } catch (error) { if (error instanceof InteractionRequiredAuthError) { // Silent acquisition failed, need interactive login // This handles expired refresh tokens (AADSTS700084) await instance.acquireTokenRedirect(request); return null; } throw error; } } return { getAccessToken }; }

Why jose Instead of MSAL

MSAL.js relies on browser APIs (localStorage, sessionStorage) and Node.js crypto modules that don't exist in Cloudflare Workers' V8 isolate runtime. The jose library is pure JavaScript and works perfectly in Workers.

JWT Validation (src/auth/validate-token.ts)

import * as jose from "jose"; interface EntraTokenPayload { aud: string; // Audience (your client ID or API URI) iss: string; // Issuer (https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant}/v2.0) sub: string; // Subject (user's unique ID) oid: string; // Object ID (user's Azure AD object ID) preferred_username: string; name: string; email?: string; roles?: string[]; // App roles if configured scp?: string; // Scopes (space-separated) } // Cache JWKS to avoid fetching on every request let jwksCache: jose.JWTVerifyGetKey | null = null; let jwksCacheTime = 0; const JWKS_CACHE_DURATION = 3600000; // 1 hour async function getJWKS(tenantId: string): Promise<jose.JWTVerifyGetKey> { const now = Date.now(); if (jwksCache && now - jwksCacheTime < JWKS_CACHE_DURATION) { return jwksCache; } // CRITICAL: Azure AD JWKS is NOT at .well-known/jwks.json // Must fetch from openid-configuration first const configUrl = `https://login.microsoftonline.com/${tenantId}/v2.0/.well-known/openid-configuration`; const configResponse = await fetch(configUrl); const config = await configResponse.json() as { jwks_uri: string }; // Now fetch JWKS from the correct URL jwksCache = jose.createRemoteJWKSet(new URL(config.jwks_uri)); jwksCacheTime = now; return jwksCache; } export async function validateEntraToken( token: string, env: { AZURE_TENANT_ID: string; AZURE_CLIENT_ID: string; } ): Promise<EntraTokenPayload | null> { try { const jwks = await getJWKS(env.AZURE_TENANT_ID); const { payload } = await jose.jwtVerify(token, jwks, { issuer: `https://login.microsoftonline.com/${env.AZURE_TENANT_ID}/v2.0`, audience: env.AZURE_CLIENT_ID, // or your API URI: api://{client_id} }); return payload as unknown as EntraTokenPayload; } catch (error) { console.error("Token validation failed:", error); return null; } }

Worker Middleware Pattern

import { validateEntraToken } from "./auth/validate-token"; export default { async fetch(request: Request, env: Env): Promise<Response> { // Skip auth for public routes const url = new URL(request.url); if (url.pathname === "/" || url.pathname.startsWith("/public")) { return handlePublicRoute(request, env); } // Extract Bearer token const authHeader = request.headers.get("Authorization"); if (!authHeader?.startsWith("Bearer ")) { return new Response(JSON.stringify({ error: "Missing authorization" }), { status: 401, headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" }, }); } const token = authHeader.slice(7); const user = await validateEntraToken(token, env); if (!user) { return new Response(JSON.stringify({ error: "Invalid token" }), { status: 401, headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" }, }); } // Add user to request context const requestWithUser = new Request(request); // Pass user info downstream (e.g., via headers or context) return handleProtectedRoute(request, env, user); }, };

1. AADSTS50058 - Silent Sign-In Loop

Error: "A silent sign-in request was sent but no user is signed in" Cause: acquireTokenSilent called when no cached user exists. Fix: // Always check for accounts before silent acquisition const accounts = instance.getAllAccounts(); if (accounts.length === 0) { // No cached user, trigger interactive login await instance.loginRedirect(loginRequest); return; }

2. AADSTS700084 - Refresh Token Expired

Error: "The refresh token was issued to a single page app (SPA), and therefore has a fixed, limited lifetime of 1.00:00:00" Cause: SPA refresh tokens expire after 24 hours. Cannot be extended. Fix: try { const response = await instance.acquireTokenSilent(request); } catch (error) { if (error instanceof InteractionRequiredAuthError) { // Refresh token expired, need fresh login await instance.acquireTokenRedirect(request); } }

3. React Router v6 Redirect Loop

Error: Infinite redirects between login page and app. Cause: React Router v6 may strip the hash fragment containing auth response. Fix: Use custom NavigationClient: import { NavigationClient } from "@azure/msal-browser"; import { useNavigate } from "react-router-dom"; class CustomNavigationClient extends NavigationClient { private navigate: ReturnType<typeof useNavigate>; constructor(navigate: ReturnType<typeof useNavigate>) { super(); this.navigate = navigate; } async navigateInternal(url: string, options: { noHistory: boolean }) { const relativePath = url.replace(window.location.origin, ""); if (options.noHistory) { this.navigate(relativePath, { replace: true }); } else { this.navigate(relativePath); } return false; // Prevent MSAL from doing its own navigation } } // In your App component: const navigate = useNavigate(); useEffect(() => { const navigationClient = new CustomNavigationClient(navigate); instance.setNavigationClient(navigationClient); }, [instance, navigate]);

4. NextJS Dynamic Route Error

Error: no_cached_authority_error in dynamic routes. Cause: MSAL instance not properly initialized before component renders. Fix: Initialize MSAL in _app.tsx before any routing: // pages/_app.tsx import { PublicClientApplication } from "@azure/msal-browser"; import { MsalProvider } from "@azure/msal-react"; import { msalConfig } from "../auth/msal-config"; // Initialize outside component const msalInstance = new PublicClientApplication(msalConfig); // Ensure initialization completes before render export default function App({ Component, pageProps }) { const [isInitialized, setIsInitialized] = useState(false); useEffect(() => { msalInstance.initialize().then(() => setIsInitialized(true)); }, []); if (!isInitialized) return <div>Loading...</div>; return ( <MsalProvider instance={msalInstance}> <Component {...pageProps} /> </MsalProvider> ); }

5. Safari/Edge Cookie Issues

Error: Auth state lost, infinite loop on Safari or Edge. On iOS 18 Safari specifically, silent token refresh fails with AADSTS50058 even when third-party cookies are enabled. Source: GitHub Issue #7384 Cause: These browsers have stricter cookie policies affecting session storage. iOS 18 Safari doesn't store the required session cookies for login.microsoftonline.com, even with third-party cookies explicitly allowed in settings. Testing Note: Works in Chrome on iOS 18, but fails in Safari on iOS 18. Fix: Enable cookie storage in MSAL config: cache: { cacheLocation: "localStorage", storeAuthStateInCookie: true, // REQUIRED for Safari/Edge } iOS 18 Safari Limitation: If users still experience issues on iOS 18 Safari after enabling cookie storage, this is a known browser limitation with no current workaround. Recommend using Chrome on iOS or desktop browser.

6. JWKS URL Not Found (Workers)

Error: Failed to fetch JWKS from .well-known/jwks.json. Cause: Azure AD doesn't serve JWKS at the standard OpenID Connect path. Fix: Fetch openid-configuration first, then use jwks_uri: // WRONG - Azure AD doesn't use this path const jwks = createRemoteJWKSet( new URL(`https://login.microsoftonline.com/${tenantId}/.well-known/jwks.json`) ); // CORRECT - Fetch config first const config = await fetch( `https://login.microsoftonline.com/${tenantId}/v2.0/.well-known/openid-configuration` ).then(r => r.json()); const jwks = createRemoteJWKSet(new URL(config.jwks_uri));

7. React Router Loader State Conflict

Error: React warning about updating state during render when using acquireTokenSilent in React Router loaders. Source: GitHub Issue #7068 Cause: Using the same PublicClientApplication instance in both the router loader and MsalProvider causes state updates during rendering. Fix: Call initialize() again in the loader: const protectedLoader = async () => { await msalInstance.initialize(); // Prevents state conflict const response = await msalInstance.acquireTokenSilent(request); return { data }; };

8. setActiveAccount Doesn't Trigger Re-render (Community-sourced)

Error: Components using useMsal() don't update after calling setActiveAccount(). Source: GitHub Issue #6989 Verified: Multiple users confirmed in GitHub issue Cause: setActiveAccount() updates the MSAL instance but doesn't notify React of the change. Fix: Force re-render with state: const [accountKey, setAccountKey] = useState(0); const switchAccount = (newAccount) => { msalInstance.setActiveAccount(newAccount); setAccountKey(prev => prev + 1); // Force update };

Single Tenant (Recommended for Enterprise)

authority: `https://login.microsoftonline.com/${TENANT_ID}`, Only users from your organization can sign in Token issuer: https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant_id}/v2.0

Multi-Tenant

authority: "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common", // or for work/school accounts only: authority: "https://login.microsoftonline.com/organizations", Users from any Azure AD tenant can sign in Token issuer varies by user's tenant Backend validation must handle multiple issuers: // Multi-tenant issuer validation const tenantId = payload.tid; // Tenant ID from token const expectedIssuer = `https://login.microsoftonline.com/${tenantId}/v2.0`; if (payload.iss !== expectedIssuer) { throw new Error("Invalid issuer"); }

Frontend (.env)

VITE_AZURE_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id-guid VITE_AZURE_TENANT_ID=your-tenant-id-guid

Backend (wrangler.jsonc)

{ "name": "my-api", "vars": { "AZURE_TENANT_ID": "your-tenant-id-guid", "AZURE_CLIENT_ID": "your-client-id-guid" } }

Azure AD B2C Sunset

Timeline: May 1, 2025: Azure AD B2C no longer available for new customer signups March 15, 2026: Azure AD B2C P2 discontinued for all customers May 2030: Microsoft will continue supporting existing B2C customers with standard support Source: Microsoft Q&A Existing B2C Customers: Can continue using B2C until 2030, but should plan migration to Entra External ID. New Projects: Use Microsoft Entra External ID for consumer/customer identity scenarios. Migration Status: As of January 2026, automated migration tools are in testing phase. Manual migration guidance available at Microsoft Learn. Migration Path: Different authority URL format ({tenant}.ciamlogin.com vs {tenant}.b2clogin.com) Updated SDK support (same MSAL libraries) New pricing model (consumption-based) Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR) approach available for user migration Seamless migration samples on GitHub (preview) See: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/external-id/ Migration Guide: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/external-id/customers/how-to-migrate-users

ADAL Retirement (Complete)

Status: Azure AD Authentication Library (ADAL) was retired on September 30, 2025. Apps using ADAL no longer receive security updates. If you're migrating from ADAL: ADAL → MSAL migration is required ADAL used v1.0 endpoints; MSAL uses v2.0 endpoints Token cache format differs - users must re-authenticate Scopes replace "resources" in token requests Key Migration Changes: // ADAL (deprecated) - resource-based acquireToken({ resource: "https://graph.microsoft.com" }) // MSAL (current) - scope-based acquireTokenSilent({ scopes: ["https://graph.microsoft.com/User.Read"] }) See: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/msal/javascript/migration/msal-net-migration
