Does this library work with Microsoft Entra ID?

[bandtank]

The README has a lot of technical details, which is appreciated, but the examples don't really show how the library works with common SSO providers. The instructions are almost too technical for someone who is getting started. I spent 20 minutes reading the README, but I still don't understand what this library does at a high level. For example, does this library allow an application to authenticate with Microsoft Entra ID? If so, is there an example configuration for Microsoft Entra ID that new users could use as a guide?

This library works with SAML based Identity authentication servers. If your iDP is not SAML based then no. Also, yes all of SSO and SAML is very technical.

The library adds SAML support to PHP applications and can interact with Microsoft Entra ID via SAML.

There is no specific documentation for any vendor, the readme describes the toolkit settings and where to place the settings from the SAML IdP Metadata.

Yes SAML is extremely technical. However, I can confirm that this library works with Entra ID. In matter of fact this is the easiest and simplified library I have used for implementing a SAML SP. Before anything, I will recommend understanding how the SAML protocol works, then look at the demo files and things will start making sense. Keep in mind Entra Id is the iDP, this library and your code is the SP.

One part I was stuck with for a while, it was about the Entra ID SAML claims and attribute names. By learning how the library SimpleSAMLphp deals with this, I learned that the effortless way, it is to have an attribute map that helps you to translate them to a simplified name name2claim. However, that is for an iDP, because I am implementing an SP, I needed to write the opposite claim2name. These URLs could help you claims customization and ClaimTypes.

Maybe, one of these days, if I have the time, I could write I demo specific for Entra ID.
