Azure AD B2C Embedded Webview
Azure AD B2C Embedded Webview is a very simple Flutter package that demonstrates how to use the embedded web view to sign in users with Azure AD B2C. Currently, using Flutter packages - appAuth and flutter_azure_b2c redirects to browser and doesn't provide in-app experience.
This package embeds the web view of the user flow endpoint using flutter_appview and redirects the user as per onRedirect callback method.
Features
Embedded web view for Azure AD B2C for providing in-app experience Redirects to the route specified in redirectRoute after successful sign in Successfully secures the id token or access token in the app using flutter secure storage Navigates to screen in app after successful sign in
Getting started
To use the package in your Flutter app, add the following code to your main.dart file:
dependencies:
aad_b2c_webview: <latest_version>
Usage
Simple In-built Sign In Button
To add the easy to use sign in with microsoft button simply use the AADLoginButton widget and a beautiful sign in button appears as shown below.
Add the following /android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml inside the tags:
<meta-data android:name="flutter_deeplinking_enabled" android:value="true" />
<intent-filter android:autoVerify="true">
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:scheme="https" android:host="myurl.com" />
</intent-filter>
Change the redirect URL in our flutter code to https://myurl.com/myappname and add this as a redirect URL in the Azure AD B2C project
Our updated version of the main.dart file is now as follows:
import 'package:aad_b2c_webview/aad_b2c_webview.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'counterdemo.dart';
void main() {
runApp(const MyApp());
}
onRedirect(BuildContext context) {
Navigator.of(context).pushNamedAndRemoveUntil('/myappname', (Route<dynamic> route) => false);
}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
const MyApp({super.key});
// This widget is the root of your application.
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(

Custom Sign in
Simply call page direct or use custom build sign in button to call web view page
import 'package:aad_b2c_webview/aad_b2c_webview.dart';
import 'package:flutter/foundation.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
class MyLoginPage extends StatelessWidget {
const MyLoginPage({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
const aadB2CClientID = "<clientId>";
const aadB2CRedirectURL = "<azure_active_directory_url_redirect>";
const aadB2CUserFlowName = "B2C_<name_of_userflow>";
const aadB2CScopes = ['openid', 'offline_access'];
const aadB2CUserAuthFlow =
"https://<tenant-name>.b2clogin.com/<tenant-name>.onmicrosoft.com"; // https://login.microsoftonline.com/<azureTenantId>/oauth2/v2.0/token/
const aadB2TenantName = "<tenant-name>";
return Scaffold(
body: ADB2CEmbedWebView(
tenantBaseUrl: aadB2CUserAuthFlow,
userFlowName: aadB2CUserFlowName,
clientId: aadB2CClientID,
redirectUrl: aadB2CRedirectURL,
scopes: aadB2CScopes,
onAnyTokenRetrieved: (Token anyToken) {},
onIDToken: (Token token) {},
onAccessToken: (Token token) {},
onRefreshToken: (Token token) {},
),
);
}
}
Send Optional Parameters
In the AADLoginButton widget, you have the flexibility to include optional parameters in order to customize the URL according to your specific requirements. The optionalParameters parameter allows you to pass a list of OptionalParam objects, where each object consists of a key and a value that represent the parameter name and its corresponding value, respectively.
Here's an example of how you can utilize the optionalParameters parameter to add new parameters to the URL:
optionalParameters: [
OptionalParam(key: "parameter1", value: "value1"),
OptionalParam(key: "parameter2", value: "value2"),
],
In the above example, we include two optional parameters: "parameter1" with the value "value1" and "parameter2" with the value "value2". You can include multiple OptionalParam objects within the list to incorporate multiple optional parameters in the URL.
These optional parameters provide you with the ability to customize the behavior of the URL and conveniently transmit additional information as per your needs.
Please adapt the example to suit your specific use case or requirements.
