Use this guide to connect RustDesk Server Pro to Microsoft Entra ID with OpenID Connect.

## What does the Azure OIDC setup do?

This setup lets users sign in to RustDesk Server Pro with Microsoft Entra ID accounts by using OpenID Connect. In practice, you register RustDesk as an application in Azure, copy the client credentials into RustDesk Pro, and point RustDesk Pro at your Entra tenant issuer URL.

## Azure OIDC checklist

- Open the RustDesk Pro web console through the final callback origin you want to use.
- Create an app registration in Microsoft Entra ID.
- Copy the `Client ID` from Azure into RustDesk Pro.
- Create a client secret and save the secret value immediately.
- Build the issuer URL with your `Directory (tenant) ID`.
- Enable `ID tokens` in Azure authentication settings.

## Which Azure values go into RustDesk Pro?

| RustDesk Pro field | Azure source |
| --- | --- |
| Callback URL | Copy from the RustDesk Pro OIDC settings page |
| Client ID | `Application (client) ID` in the Azure app overview |
| Client secret | Secret `Value` created under `Certificates & secrets` |
| Issuer | `https://login.microsoftonline.com/<Directory (tenant) ID>/v2.0` |

## Configuration

1. Sign in to the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com).
2. Search for and select **Microsoft Entra ID**.
3. In the left menu, select [**App registrations**](https://portal.azure.com/#view/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/ActiveDirectoryMenuBlade/~/RegisteredApps), click **New registration**.

4. Open the RustDesk Pro console, in the **Settings** page, click the **OIDC** module. Then copy the **Callback URL**. **Note**: The **Callback URL** is not editable, the `Path` part is fixed to `api/oidc/callback`, and the `Protocol://Host:Port` part is the origin of the current web page. If you open it through the address `http://localhost:8000/<path>`, then the **Callback URL** is `http://localhost:8000/api/oidc/callback`. If you open it through the address `https://192.168.0.1:8000/<path>` is opened, then the **Callback URL** is `https://192.168.0.1:8000/api/oidc/callback`. Because Azure must use `https://` or `http://localhost`, please select the appropriate address to open your RustDesk Pro console.

9. In Azure, **Certificates & secrets**, create a new or select a client secret, usually New.

11. In RustDesk Pro, paste the value for the client secret.

12. In RustDesk Pro, fill in the **Issuer** field with `https://login.microsoftonline.com/<Directory (tenant) ID>/v2.0`. Please replace `Directory (tenant) ID` with your **Directory (tenant) ID**. The **Directory (tenant) ID** is in Azure's app **Overview** panel.
