Azure Active Directory authentication for Go
This is a standalone package for authenticating with Azure Active Directory from other Go libraries and applications, in particular the Azure SDK for Go.
Note: Despite the package's name it is not related to other "ADAL" libraries maintained in the github.com/AzureAD org. Issues should be opened in this repo's or the SDK's issue trackers.
Install
go get -u github.com/Azure/go-autorest/autorest/adal
Usage
An Active Directory application is required in order to use this library. An application can be registered in the Azure Portal by following these guidelines or using the Azure CLI.
Register an Azure AD Application with secret
-
Register a new application with a
secret
credentialaz ad app create \ --display-name example-app \ --homepage https://example-app/home \ --identifier-uris https://example-app/app \ --password secret
-
Create a service principal using the
Application ID
from previous stepaz ad sp create --id "Application ID"
- Replace
Application ID
withappId
from step 1.
- Replace
Register an Azure AD Application with certificate
-
Create a private key
openssl genrsa -out "example-app.key" 2048
-
Create the certificate
openssl req -new -key "example-app.key" -subj "/CN=example-app" -out "example-app.csr" openssl x509 -req -in "example-app.csr" -signkey "example-app.key" -out "example-app.crt" -days 10000
-
Create the PKCS12 version of the certificate containing also the private key
openssl pkcs12 -export -out "example-app.pfx" -inkey "example-app.key" -in "example-app.crt" -passout pass:
-
Register a new application with the certificate content form
example-app.crt
certificateContents="$(tail -n+2 "example-app.crt" | head -n-1)" az ad app create \ --display-name example-app \ --homepage https://example-app/home \ --identifier-uris https://example-app/app \ --key-usage Verify --end-date 2018-01-01 \ --key-value "${certificateContents}"
-
Create a service principal using the
Application ID
from previous stepaz ad sp create --id "APPLICATION_ID"
- Replace
APPLICATION_ID
withappId
from step 4.
- Replace
Grant the necessary permissions
Azure relies on a Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model to manage the access to resources at a fine-grained level. There is a set of pre-defined roles which can be assigned to a service principal of an Azure AD application depending of your needs.
az role assignment create --assigner "SERVICE_PRINCIPAL_ID" --role "ROLE_NAME"
- Replace the
SERVICE_PRINCIPAL_ID
with theappId
from previous step. - Replace the
ROLE_NAME
with a role name of your choice.
It is also possible to define custom role definitions.
az role definition create --role-definition role-definition.json
- Check custom roles for more details regarding the content of
role-definition.json
file.
Acquire Access Token
The common configuration used by all flows:
const activeDirectoryEndpoint = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/"
tenantID := "TENANT_ID"
oauthConfig, err := adal.NewOAuthConfig(activeDirectoryEndpoint, tenantID)
applicationID := "APPLICATION_ID"
callback := func(token adal.Token) error {
// This is called after the token is acquired
}
// The resource for which the token is acquired
resource := "https://management.core.windows.net/"
- Replace the
TENANT_ID
with your tenant ID. - Replace the
APPLICATION_ID
with the value from previous section.
Client Credentials
applicationSecret := "APPLICATION_SECRET"
spt, err := adal.NewServicePrincipalToken(
oauthConfig,
appliationID,
applicationSecret,
resource,
callbacks...)
if err != nil {
return nil, err
}
// Acquire a new access token
err = spt.Refresh()
if (err == nil) {
token := spt.Token
}
- Replace the
APPLICATION_SECRET
with thepassword
value from previous section.
Client Certificate
certificatePath := "./example-app.pfx"
certData, err := ioutil.ReadFile(certificatePath)
if err != nil {
return nil, fmt.Errorf("failed to read the certificate file (%s): %v", certificatePath, err)
}
// Get the certificate and private key from pfx file
certificate, rsaPrivateKey, err := decodePkcs12(certData, "")
if err != nil {
return nil, fmt.Errorf("failed to decode pkcs12 certificate while creating spt: %v", err)
}
spt, err := adal.NewServicePrincipalTokenFromCertificate(
oauthConfig,
applicationID,
certificate,
rsaPrivateKey,
resource,
callbacks...)
// Acquire a new access token
err = spt.Refresh()
if (err == nil) {
token := spt.Token
}
- Update the certificate path to point to the example-app.pfx file which was created in previous section.
Device Code
oauthClient := &http.Client{}
// Acquire the device code
deviceCode, err := adal.InitiateDeviceAuth(
oauthClient,
oauthConfig,
applicationID,
resource)
if err != nil {
return nil, fmt.Errorf("Failed to start device auth flow: %s", err)
}
// Display the authentication message
fmt.Println(*deviceCode.Message)
// Wait here until the user is authenticated
token, err := adal.WaitForUserCompletion(oauthClient, deviceCode)
if err != nil {
return nil, fmt.Errorf("Failed to finish device auth flow: %s", err)
}
spt, err := adal.NewServicePrincipalTokenFromManualToken(
oauthConfig,
applicationID,
resource,
*token,
callbacks...)
if (err == nil) {
token := spt.Token
}
Username password authenticate
spt, err := adal.NewServicePrincipalTokenFromUsernamePassword(
oauthConfig,
applicationID,
username,
password,
resource,
callbacks...)
if (err == nil) {
token := spt.Token
}
Authorization code authenticate
spt, err := adal.NewServicePrincipalTokenFromAuthorizationCode(
oauthConfig,
applicationID,
clientSecret,
authorizationCode,
redirectURI,
resource,
callbacks...)
err = spt.Refresh()
if (err == nil) {
token := spt.Token
}
Command Line Tool
A command line tool is available in cmd/adal.go
that can acquire a token for a given resource. It supports all flows mentioned above.
adal -h
Usage of ./adal:
-applicationId string
application id
-certificatePath string
path to pk12/PFC application certificate
-mode string
authentication mode (device, secret, cert, refresh) (default "device")
-resource string
resource for which the token is requested
-secret string
application secret
-tenantId string
tenant id
-tokenCachePath string
location of oath token cache (default "/home/cgc/.adal/accessToken.json")
Example acquire a token for https://management.core.windows.net/
using device code flow:
adal -mode device \
-applicationId "APPLICATION_ID" \
-tenantId "TENANT_ID" \
-resource https://management.core.windows.net/
