How to configure Azure AD SSO programmatically for gallery-based application?

问题

I need to configure Azure Active Directory SSO for Tableau Server gallery app as it is under MS documentation link programmatically. Are there useful powershell cmdlets / rest apis?

I create application from gallery using graph api from Step 1 on MS docs. To get available templates:

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/applicationTemplates

To create template app:

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/applicationTemplates/{id}/instantiate

Now I need to configure SAML SSO from code and assign users. Is there an easy way to do that? I tried Set-AzureADApplication but it didn't do the job for me. The enterprise application is still not set. Maybe it's not supported yet? I believe there can be some workaround. I would be grateful for any help.

Yes, but per my test, we need to do that into two parts.

1.Set the Sign-on URL, to do this, we need to call Microsoft Graph - Update serviceprincipal.

In the Graph Explorer, use the request below.

PATCH https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/servicePrincipals/<object-id of the service principal>

{
  "loginUrl": "https://azure.signtest.link"
}

Note: In the request above, you need to use the object-id of the service principal(Enterprise application), not the AD App(App registeration). You can find it in the Azure AD in the portal -> Enterprise Application -> find your Tableau Server -> get the Object ID like below.

2.Set the Identifier and Reply URL, we could do this via Powershell Set-AzureADApplication.

Sample:

$Identifiers = @(
    "http://www.tableau.com/products/server",
    "https://azure.idtest.link"
)
$ReplyUrls = @(
    "https://azure.rptest.link/wg/saml/SSO/index.html"
)
Set-AzureADApplication -ObjectId <object-id of the AD App> -IdentifierUris $Identifiers -ReplyUrls $ReplyUrls 

For the object-id of the AD App, navigate to the Azure AD in the portal -> App registrations -> find your Tableau Server. After running the command, the settings will map to the enterprise application.

Check the result in the portal:

Update:

Not sure if it is a bug, if I create a new app without setting the Identifier and Reply URL manually in the portal, then just use the powershell above to set them, they will not map to the portal.

But if we check the service principal(enterprise application) directly via Microsoft Graph, we can see the powershell actually affected the service principal.

If we configure the settings manually in the portal first, then use the powershell to update them with other values, it works.

And it looks there is no way to set the Default Reply URL via powrshell or API, if we set the Reply URL which is different from the one set manually in the portal, it will have a prompt like below.

But if we look into it, actually the Default option is checked.

Update2:

Eventually, I find the trick, it is not a bug, we just need to set the preferredSingleSignOnMode for the service principal first via Microsoft Graph, then we won't need to configure that in the portal manually.

Sample:

PATCH https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/servicePrincipals/<object-id of the service principal>

{
  "preferredSingleSignOnMode":"saml",
  "loginUrl": "https://azure.signtest.link"
}
