Azure AD B2C - Autofill known user data at signup - azure-ad-b2c

I want to know if its possible to make the SignUp Form to programmatically query some service (maybe a rest API or whatever), and then suggest some of the retrieved data to the user by filling it automatically in the fields.

Based on the number of answers on my similar question, I'm assuming the answer is no. As part of your UserJourney, you can make REST calls, which can eventually return you claims, but you cannot do anything with those claims when it comes to UI.
UI customizations look promising, but disallow JavaScript so you cannot "hack" your preselected values in either.

Count of MFA option used by users in ADB2C custom policies

We have implemented adb2c custom polices for providing options to user to select preferred method for MFA i.e either by Phone/SMS or Email.
Is there a way to find the analytics that how much time users are using either of the method.
Need this to identify if we really need to provide two options going forward or can remove one of them.
Appreciate any help on this.
You can add extra data to App Insights based on MFA selection.
You can then query the data and analyse the results.

User Info from JWT Kogito

I understand the mechanism of OIDC in Kogito with the help of process-usertasks-with-security-oidc-quarkus example.
However, I have a question about user information. In the given example, the approved field is filled by a Query string. Is there any way to get user information in Kogito? If it doesn't have that feature, can it reflect from header to service?
The integration with the security context inside the Kogito app is something that is on the radar, see https://issues.redhat.com/browse/KOGITO-6162. That would ignore the query string and use the authenticated user. Perhaps, for now, you could create your own endpoint to retrieve the authenticated information as needed and mimic the same API call that is done in the generated endpoint.
I figure out a temporary fix that problem with help of written Custom Service when using Kogito with Quarkus.
https://quarkus.io/guides/security-jwt
JWT Injection can call from the Service layer when used with Kogito.
It is also possible to propagate user identity to other workflow items with internally tagged process variables.

Customize the user interface in Azure Active Directory B2C

I understand how to brand my login form but how to customize the workflow that Azure provides?
Currently the Sign-up form looks like this:
Which is really unlogical. The text boxes under 'Verificatiecode verzenden' (Send verification code) are only useful after the code has received and filled in.
How to customize this part to create a better working workflow:
Add email address -> Send code -> Fill in code and verify --> Fill in additional user details.
Edit:
As recommended by Brad I dived into Identity Experience Framework. An 'intimidating' framework is a big understatement ;(
I watched these videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4svy-vB4AaxRunWQkxOe8h3zP9jAzS5Z and followed the steps mentioned here:
https://github.com/azure-ad-b2c/azureadb2ccommunity.io/wiki/LocalAndSocialAccount-Sign-In-and-Sign-Up-policy
https://github.com/azure-ad-b2c/samples/tree/master/policies/split-email-verification-and-signup
I'm just at the point that I only want to mimic what I currently have using the 'normal' user flows:
Log-in using Email
Log-in using Facebook
Log-in using Google
The login screen looks the same, I have the email and password buttons and the Facebook and Google buttons, but when I log in with Google I get an error about grant-type not set.
And this is all without trying the split.xml.
I'm so lost in understanding AAD B2C. It should make live easier for developers but I find it very complicated, hard to modify and hard to get the profile data I need and to keep the data in sync.
In order to achieve this with User Flows, you must use the Custom User Interface features, and Javascript to control how and when those fields are displayed.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory-b2c/javascript-and-page-layout?pivots=b2c-user-flow#enable-javascript
Optionally, you can conduct a similar flow using the Identity Experience Framework (Custom Policies) with either Javascript or where you use two different Self Asserted profiles to move from screen to screen.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory-b2c/custom-policy-trust-frameworks
Taking the leap from User Flows to the Identity Experience Framework can be intimidating, but would give you the most control in your user experience.

Migrating Users From Facebook's "Raw" Authentication to Firebase Based Facebook Authentication

I am working on a project which needs User Authentication. The "Clients" are iOS (Swift) or Android (Kotlin) native applications. The original form of the API (NodeJS) used Facebook and Account Kit for OAuth and Phone authentication respectively. Since Account Kit shutdown, we moved to Firebase Phone Authentication for Phone but left Facebook in its original form. Now, we're wanting to consolidate our Authentication providers (to Firebase) but I can't seem to find a way to "convert" or "import" Facebook users to Firebase-based Facebook users.
So far, I've read through the Documentation, including the category about importing users, but it doesn't seem to indicate an ability to maintain backwards compatibility, while also moving forward to Firebase. What I mean is, it has an ability to set information, but it doesn't indicate that the same information will be used to authenticate that user as the same unique visitor.
What I am looking for is either transitory logic, which will handle this during login, or preferably, a "bulk-insert" type migration. Essentially, I want to have it setup so that the API only needs to keep a single authentication UID, and use only a single third party (even if they then use another subsequent third party) while maintaining user uniqueness (so that it doesn't create a new user for the same Facebook account).
Part of my problem in creating a temporary patch (not necessary if the main question is answered) is that I don't know of a way to differentiate between a Facebook UID and a Firebase UID to fork the logic. Again, this is only relevant if there isn't a solution for migration.
Feel free to request any more details that would be useful.
Update #1
I realized my question was open ended in what I was asking. I've been digging further and can better define my question:
I need a way to bulk insert users into Firebase's Authentication with a provider of Facebook. I know I can import them, via admin.auth().importUsers([...]) and that I can create accounts via admin.auth().createUser({...}) but when I do the former I can't seem to get back the user's UID, and the latter doesn't seem to allow specifying a provider. Am I missing something?

Hide some api in swagger ui

Is it possible in hapi-swagger to hide some APIs from documentation (swagger ui) based on user role.
I mean suppose I have /employee and /admin two APIs so whenever admin login to swagger ui or swagger documentation so both /employee and /admin API should display on page and if employee login to swagger ui then it should display only /employee API.
You can hide routes by omitting the ['tag'] value in the configuration, but you cannot have this on a user based role without considerable reworking. The documentation is generated at server start not on the fly, which is why you need to reload the server to reflect changes.
I had a similar use case, and in the end I decided it made more sense to have a different endpoint for the two difference services (in your case employee and admin). So perhaps something like api.domain.com/internal and api.domain.com/external and if so desired its easy to wrap authentication around either of these. It also leads to advantages should you ever want to grant access to developers to work on one API group rather than open access to both.
