How to enable Single Sign-On with Microsoft
If you or your organisation have a Microsoft account, you can enable Single Sign-On to Newton using Microsoft authentication.
Here is how it works:
On Newton’s login page, instead of entering username and password, click on “LOGIN WITH MICROSOFT”.
Microsoft’s login page will open. After you have successfully logged in to your Microsoft account, you will be redirected to the Newton application and logged in with the email address associated with your Microsoft account.

User Setup
If you plan to delegate authentication to Microsoft, all user accounts must be created using the email address used to authenticate with Microsoft.
Activate Microsoft SSO
As a system administrator, go to
Configuration - Options - General Settings - Authentication - Methods
Edit the “Microsoft SSO via OAuth” option and set the attribute “Active” to yes.

To grant consent, your IT administrators must follow the steps explained in .
Newton’s application ID is 4fbf3ace-7ec6-4094-8818-34ae11ef4ba4. This ID is referred to as the client-ID in the Microsoft documentation.
