I have a FileMaker application embedded in my website in an iframe on a page locked behind Azure Active Directory auth. Currently, I have to click the 'Login with Microsoft' button twice in order to access my Filemaker database. First, from my container page, and then again from the filemaker file. Is it possible to login using external auth (Azure AD) with a POST request, to reduce the number of steps required? Or pass my Azure tokens somehow?

 

I'm assuming that you are using WebDirect in that iFrame?

The short answer is: no.  You cannot initiate a FM login programmatically, the user has to click the button.  The reason is that this call starts the OAuth dance with a 'state' that is generated by that button-click and FMS checks that state when getting the authentication response and before calling the toke endpoint.

Yes, this is in reference to WebDirect. Alright, thank you very much for the response. That is what I thought would be the case, but I just wanted to be certain.
