Represents identity providers for both Microsoft Entra and Azure AD B2C tenants.
Configuring an identity provider in your workforce tenant enables new B2B guest scenarios. For example, an organization has resources in Microsoft 365 that need to be shared with a Gmail user. The Gmail user will use their Google account credentials to authenticate and access the documents.
Configuring an identity provider in your external or Azure AD B2C tenant enables users to sign up and sign in using a social account or a custom OpenID Connect supported provider in an application. For example, an application can use Entra External ID or Azure AD B2C to allow users to sign up for the service using a Facebook account or their own custom identity provider that complies with OIDC protocol (Open ID Connect is currently supported only with external tenants and Azure AD B2C).
