Re: MS Azure authentification

It is technically impossible to authenticate Wialon user via external services (AD, login via social networks, Google account, email, etc). You may want to try flespi platform for deeper integration, it can use third party auth services and allows to send data streams from devices to Wialon.

Actually, it is possible to link any external service authorization with Wialon.

But you will need to write an application for it.

1. You need page with external service authorization.
2. After successful login, you are checking on your server for Wialon token for external service user id.
3. If no such token (first login), redirect user to login.html with redirect_uri back to your page, else go to step 5
4. After recieving Wialon token, save it on your server, redirect user to hosting.wialon.com/?token=xxxx , Done!
5. If there is some token on your server, it is better to check its validity, by test login from the server via token/login , if it is not successful — go to step 3, else to step 4.

You even can modify this scheme, excluding login.html step, if you'll create token for your superuser and will create tokens for subusers authomatically. In such case users can even don't know their own wialon passwords and as a bonus you can implement two-factor auth with any level of security.
