AADB2C: Send email invitation for new user to sign up
I would like the ability to trigger an email invitation be sent to new users for our web application that I want to authenticate with AADB2C. In our multi-tenant design, each tenant will be responsible for adding their own users to their tenant. I would like the admin of the tenant to be able to send an email invitation to the new user and then that user can complete the sign-up process.

Let us know what you think and if this fits your use case.

AADB2C: Support OAuth 2.0 client credential flow
As mentioned in the B2C limitations:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/active-directory-b2c-limitations/
Our daemons / server-side applications need this feature as part of our security implementation in order to grant access to our web apis.
380 votesCurrently, you can use “App Registration” blade in the Azure Portal (outside of the Azure AD B2C blades) to register an apps that define application permission and the register apps that use client credentials to request these. The caveat is that this is done using the same mechanism that you’d use in regular Azure AD.
Ideally we’d have a first class experience for this in the Azure AD B2C blades or at least have an Azure doc that walks you through the experience I just summarized, so I’m leaving this feature ask open.
It would be great if you guys can add comments with your feedback. What scenarios areyou trying to achieve? Does the approach above help you achieve what you want to achieve? Does the experience to do so work for you guys and if not, what would you like to see?

RBAC for AAD
The Azure teams have done an awesome job implementing RBAC. I would love to have this same functionality (granular permissions + custom roles) for AAD itself.
Currently there's too many activities that only a global admin can do. RBAC would allow us to delegate appropriate activities without increasing our security attack surface.373 votesHi folks,
Just a quick update here. We’re still actively working on support for custom roles (RBAC) across Azure AD. Stay tuned for more announcements in the next couple of months.You can have a look at what we’ve shipped thus far (custom roles for application registration management) here – https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/users-groups-roles/roles-custom-overview.

Support Azure AD domain join for Windows Server 2016
Microsoft should strongly consider implementing support for Azure AD join in future builds of Windows Server 2016. I how a couple of customers that have nearly finished the transition to all cloud and is left with a couple of servers due to legacy software. They are currently left with the option to deploy Azure AD Domain Services for supporting a couple (2-5) servers.
351 votesCurrently, we are not aware of any plans from Windows Server for this capability. We’ll continue to work with Windows Server to revisit this in the near future

AADB2C: Force password reset
Add the ability to force user's to reset password at next login. It would be ideal if this was available for both individual users as well as in bulk. This is necessary for situations such as credential leaks, etc.
351 votesWe have started the planning for this feature and hope to have a preview by the end of the calendar year. In the meantime, could you respond to aadb2cpreview@microsoft.com with the answers to the following questions:
- In which scenarios do you plan to force the user to change his/her password?
- What kind of information (if any) would you like to get back if the user goes through the reset flow?
- Do you currently or plan to track which users have reset their password? -
Add support for the Microsoft Authenticator app in B2C
Enable the Microsoft Authenticator app to be used for 2FA in Azure B2C.
349 votesWe are looking to add additional MFA options for Azure AD B2C in the next few months. As part of the investigation, we want to learn more about your requirements. Email your feedback to aadb2cpreview@microsoft.com.
When you say “support for Microsoft Authenticator”, which feature are you referring to?
1. The ability to see the codes in the authenticator app
2. The ability to receive push notifications for MFAIf both, which do you prefer more?
Again, please email your feedback to aadb2cpreview@microsoft.com. Feel free to include more details about your scenarios/requirements!

Support for Azure Dynamic Device groups for grouping ADJ & HDJ devices
how to properly group Azure Domain Joined devices and Hybrid Azure Domain Joined devices??... there is no available support for this request.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/users-groups-roles/groups-dynamic-membership#rules-for-devicesThere are values available within an ADJ and HDJ to be filtered. I can filter them in Get-MsolDevice or in the Azure Portal too, but an Azure dynamic device group doesn't have an available attribute to filter them, there are two values that can be used to filter but none of them are available for Azure DDG:
ADJ>
DeviceTrustType: Azure AD Joined
DirSyncEnabled: $null
HDJ>
DeviceTrustType: Domain Joined
DirSyncEnabled: TruePlease advise how to group these two…

MFA: remember device permanently (& remember per device, not per app)
Please:
1. Remove the 60-day (max) limit on remembering Office 365/Azure MFA authorisation for a device/app.
2. Make it so that MFA is remembered once per device (well, per user account per device), not once per app (for all Microsoft apps that authorise across all kinds of devices).Rationale: Having to refresh the MFA authorisation periodically does not add to security, because we already know that the app or device is trusted and if that changes (e.g. device is lost or stolen), the correct procedure to follow is for the admin to immediately revoke the authorisation for the device and/or…
312 votesWe are currently considering updating the Remember MFA settings. You can use Conditional Access Sign-in frequency policy to extend the session lifetime up 365 days.

Azure AD B2C Data Residency in Australia
Although Azure AD B2C is available for use in Australia, there is not option to create a directiry for which the user data resides in Australia. We would like to be able to ensure that our Azure AD B2C user data remains in Australia.
311 votesWe plan to start work on this in the next 6 months. Please note we don’t have timing on when it would be available for customers.

Enable per user MFA bypass for Azure MFA (Cloud) make this both temporary and permenant based on settings
Currently per user bypass is not capable in Azure MFA (Cloud only) this can be done using the Azure MFA on premise server. This functionality make Azure MFA more usable for a end user community that often loses or forget cell phones and need temporary bypass. Also using Azure MFA with NPS/Radius there is no way to allow services accounts that do network equipment monitoring to avoid Azure MFA if we want to enable MFA to access critical network infrastructure or VPN using radius this would help this scenario too
286 votesWe are currently working on a method to allow users to sign in while their authentication methods are temporarily unavailable.

Allow administrators to unlock locked-out users in Azure AD Domain Services
If a users gets locked out of their account in Azure AD Domain services there is no way to unlock it. The user has to wait for 30 minutes.

Disable user's ability to change password (via cloud/portals)
We need to disable a user's ability to change their password. We need to manage password changes in our own application.
NOTE: I am not referring to password resets (which we can easily disable). Rather I'm talking about preventing users from changing their password via a Microsoft portal when they know their existing password.
We are looking for an equivalent of the (non Azure) AD powershell command Set-ADUser -CannotChangePassword.
281 votesHi folks! I apologies for the delay in response and I deeply appreciate your feedback. I understand how important this feature is for your and your users. We do not yet have plans to implement this feature, but please keep voting if this is important to you to help us prioritize appropriately.

Deploy and manage Active Directory B2C using ARM templates and RM PowerShell cmdlets.
When building Azure-based applications intended for generalization and multiple deployment, it would simplify both the development and deployment experience if B2C directories could be configured using the standard Azure RM template and PowerShell cmdlet functionality.
273 votesGiven that a Azure AD B2C tenant should only be used for configuring Azure AD B2C, would having programmatic API’s to configure all of the Azure AD B2C settings be useful or is there more that you are looking to achieve using ARM templates?

Azure AD B2C, How to Avoid / Validate, duplicate Sign up with Social Identity Providers
Hi, Assume, I sign up with Google 'siva@gmail.com', it creates a user in the tenant. I sign up with Facebook 'siva@gmail.com', it creates another user in the tenant. Also I went and Sign up using email account, for 'siva@gmail.com', now am finding 3 users with same email id. I see this is a duplicate accounts are getting created. Is there any way this can be validated & inform user in Azure AD B2C ?
271 votesThank you. We will examine the experience of duplicate sign ups across Identity providers. Would performing this check by using the email address be sufficient?
BTW, Linking multiple provider accounts to one user is in our roadmap and we’ve already achieved it in preview…
We look forward to your feedback
