Cirreum.Runtime.Identity.EntraExternalId 1.0.4

Cirreum Runtime Identity EntraExternalId

Runtime Extensions package for Cirreum Identity EntraExternalId — the app-facing entry point for the Microsoft Entra External ID custom-claims provisioning callback.

Overview

Install this package when your application uses Microsoft Entra External ID (CIAM) with a custom authentication extension (onTokenIssuanceStart) that calls into Cirreum for user provisioning. Install the umbrella Cirreum.Runtime.Identity instead if you need multiple identity provider protocols (e.g. Oidc + Entra External ID).

This package contributes two extension methods:

• builder.AddEntraExternalIdIdentity(configure?) — registers the Entra External ID provider and, via the optional callback, app-provided IUserProvisioner implementations keyed per configured instance.
• app.MapEntraExternalIdIdentity() — maps the provisioning routes for every enabled Entra External ID instance.

Installation

dotnet add package Cirreum.Runtime.Identity.EntraExternalId

Usage

using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

builder.AddEntraExternalIdIdentity(p => p
    .AddProvisioner<EmployeeProvisioner>("primary"));

var app = builder.Build();

app.UseAuthentication();
app.UseAuthorization();

app.MapEntraExternalIdIdentity();

app.Run();

App-provided provisioner class

Derive from the base that matches the instance's onboarding model:

using Cirreum.Identity.Provisioning;

public sealed class EmployeeProvisioner(AppDbContext db)
    : InvitationUserProvisionerBase<EmployeeUser> {

    protected override Task<EmployeeUser?> FindUserAsync(string externalUserId, CancellationToken ct) =>
        db.Users.FirstOrDefaultAsync(u => u.ExternalUserId == externalUserId, ct);

    protected override async Task<EmployeeUser?> RedeemInvitationAsync(
        string email, string externalUserId, CancellationToken ct) {
        // atomically find, validate, and claim the invitation; create user record
    }
}

See Cirreum.IdentityProvider for the full provisioner hierarchy (UserProvisionerBase<TUser>, InvitationUserProvisionerBase<TUser>, SelfServiceUserProvisionerBase<TUser>) and Cirreum.Identity.EntraExternalId for the Entra External ID wire contract, configuration keys, Azure Portal setup, and security model.

Configuration

{
  "Cirreum": {
    "Identity": {
      "Providers": {
        "EntraExternalId": {
          "Instances": {
            "primary": {
              "Enabled": true,
              "Route": "/auth/entra/provision",
              "ClientId": "<app-registration-client-id>",
              "Issuer": "https://<tenant-id>.ciamlogin.com/<tenant-id>/v2.0",
              "MetadataEndpoint": "https://<tenant-id>.ciamlogin.com/<tenant-id>/v2.0/.well-known/openid-configuration",
              "AllowedAppIds": "<allowed-client-app-guid>"
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Issuer format gotcha: the tenant-ID subdomain form is required — e.g. https://<tenant-id>.ciamlogin.com/<tenant-id>/v2.0. The domain-name form (e.g. yourtenant.ciamlogin.com) causes silent token-validation failure.

See Cirreum.Identity.EntraExternalId for the full per-instance settings reference and Azure Portal setup guide.

Dependencies

• Cirreum.Runtime.IdentityProvider — the RegisterIdentityProvider<> helper, IIdentityBuilder, and IdentityProviderMapping types
• Cirreum.Identity.EntraExternalId — the Entra External ID registrar, handler, token validator, and settings

Multi-protocol apps

If you need both Oidc and Entra External ID, install the umbrella Cirreum.Runtime.Identity instead — it exposes builder.AddIdentity(configure?) / app.MapIdentity() which register both providers and map all their routes.
