Logging into Azure Ad with Cypress

How can I retrieve an access token via Azure authentication?

Solution

  • I managed to solve the Azure AD login by creating the following Cypress custom command:

    Cypress.Commands.add('login', () => {
  return cy
    .request({
      method: 'POST',
      url: `https://login.microsoftonline.com/${tenantId}/oauth2/token`,
      form: true,
      body: {
        grant_type: 'password',
        tenant: 'tenantId',
        client_id: 'clientId',
        client_secret: 'clientSecret',
        username: 'username',
        password: 'password',
        resource: 'clientId',
      },
    })
    .then((response) => {
      sessionStorage.setItem('access_token', response.body.access_token);
    });
});

    Then you can use your custom command in your test as first action like:

    cy.login();

    and then perform your site visit:

    cy.visit()
