I’ve currently got Windows Azure AppFabric system set up and running with my own

  • 0

I’ve currently got Windows Azure AppFabric system set up and running with my own registered Namespace, in which uses the Google/Yahoo/Windows Live STS providers. That all works fine, I can use them and login to my application. Easy.

However, I can’t find anything in any way useful on the web that related to adding my own STS to this list from a 3rd party supplier. I’ve read that it’s possible, and it’s the last hurdle I’m stuck on here – replacing the Google/Yahoo/Windows Live STS with the ones I need my application to authenticate with. I cannot find anywhere in the STS control panel to allow for this (AppFabric Labs).

Has anyone got any experience with this and can show guidance?

Thanks in advance.

    You add new Identity Providers in two ways:

    1- Use the “Identity Providers” menu option on the left, then pick your options. They are typically labeled “ADFS v2.0” (this is the one you use for any WS-Federation STS including the STS WIF will generate for you inside Visual Studio), “Facebook”, etc

    2- Use the Management API.

    For what you are doing seems like #1 is the way to go initially. There’s one notable exception. OpenID identity providers can only be added programatically at this time.
