New Blog | Migrate ADAL apps to MSAL with enhanced insights
By NehaGoel
We’re pleased to announce significant updates to the Sign-ins workbook in the Microsoft Entra admin center, a crucial tool for organizations transitioning from Azure Active Directory Authentication Libraries (ADAL) to Microsoft Authentication Libraries (MSAL). These updates aim to streamline the ADAL migration process by providing comprehensive insights into your ADAL-application-related data.
Why is this Important?
We announced ADAL end of life in June 2020 and stopped supporting any security updates as of June 2023—which means applications using ADAL can’t utilize the latest security features, leaving them vulnerable to future security threats. We strongly recommend migrating any application using ADAL to MSAL to improve the security posture and resilience of authentication and authorization of your client applications.
MSAL supports the latest security features for Microsoft Entra ID like managed identity, Continuous Access Evaluation (CAE), passkeys, and many more. The updated Sign-ins workbook is an essential tool in this transition, providing the necessary insights and data to make informed decisions to execute migration.
What’s new in the Sign-ins workbook?
The Sign-ins workbook is redesigned for admins needing a centralized and more detailed view of applications using ADAL within their tenant. These additional insights can help them identify, investigate, and validate the ADAL applications to successfully migrate to MSAL.
Here’s what you can expect with the latest enhancements:
Comprehensive sign-in log aggregation: The workbook now consolidates logs from various types of sign-in events, including interactive, non-interactive, and service principal sign-ins.
Enhanced data visualization: We updated the report with new aggregated metrics to enable an all-up view of sign-ins across ADAL applications. To aid in your specific analytical needs, the workbook supports the application of custom filters and queries. This flexibility enables you to focus on the information that matters most to your ADAL migration efforts.
Integration with Microsoft Entra recommendations: You can now directly access this Sign-Ins workbook from the ADAL to MSAL recommendation page to dive deep into the list of ADAL applications listed on the recommendation details page. To use the workbooks for Microsoft Entra ID, you need a Microsoft Entra ID tenant with a P1 license.
