    Hi community,

     I'm currently involved in a project where my client need to authenticate users based on azure AD account, is there a way to point authentication directly towered Azure AD in mist AI ?

    Yes, Mist supports SAML 2.0 which is supported by both traditional AD as well as Azure.
    Mist SSO FAQ - Mist

    If you are looking to authenticate normal users for WIFI access, then you would set up an SSID for SSO with Identity Provider:
    Azure WLAN SSO Integration - Mist

    If you are looking to authenticate administrative users to manage Mist that is also supported:
    Azure Admin SSO Integration - Mist

    The Okta SSO instructions and screenshots are more up to date than azure document, but you can get the general idea between the two:
    Captive Portal with Okta SSO - Mist

    Hope that helps

    Hi Fred, 

    Is there any documentation for connecting traditional AD to Mist for client authentication ?
