Mention any other details that might be useful

I’ve created an Azure AD registration (done this many times before and worked), so I don’ think I’m doing something wrong there.

The error states that it is using my correct directory (beginning with 72f…), so it appears as though it can read my env.local file. I just am not sure of what it means with “identifier ‘undefined’”

Thanks! We’ll be in touch soon.

Ah yes, so the entire property is optional when creating the AzureAD component, but in the sample, we still set it to whatever is in the .env.local file. So what this means is it was being sent to blank and then passing that onto MSAL and throwing the error.

If you do not wish to set it in the .env.local file, you would need to remove the following line from the file sample/SampleAppButtonLaunch.js and sample/SampleAppRedirectOnLaunch.js

authority: process.env.REACT_APP_AUTHORITY,

Glad you got it working!

The code snippet says it was optional, so I left it out.

Once I added it with these credentials, I got it to work. Thank you!

Where … is the rest of my client ID & authority
