How to Set Up Microsoft SSO

It's important to make registration to your website as easy as possible - to that end, MediaOS supports several single-sign on options so users can skip filling out forms or email confirmation and instead are immediately logged in to your site via Google, LinkedIn or a suite of Microsoft enabled accounts. Not only does this get more people registered for your site, but it also immediately adds the user to your CRM and can even automatically sign them up for MediaOS Enabled Newsletters! Reach out to us today to learn more about getting your website integrated with MediaOS.

When using a MediaOS Integrated Website - it's important to have multiple avenues for readers to register for your site. To that end, we've implemented a Single Sign On method using a reader's Microsoft Account. Please note that this requires a subscription to MediaOS's Digital Publisher's Tech Stack.

To register a new app, start by clicking on App Registrations, then select New Registration. Under Supported Account Types, choose the option that includes accounts in any organizational directory (Any Microsoft Entra ID tenant—Multitenant) and personal Microsoft accounts (e.g., Skype, Xbox). For the Redirect URI, select Web and enter https://mos-scripts.com/user/sso/microsoft/step2.php. Once all fields are complete, click Register to create the app.
