Question

User389785001 posted

Detailed steps that i have implemented :
1.Registered my application in Microsoft developer center
2. Enabled the Microsoft Authentication in AuthConfig.cs
3.Updated the Client ID and Secret key, with the one's that i got by registered the application apps.dev.microsoft.com 

4.Hosted the web application in Azure portal and ensured that registered URL is same as that is there in azure portal 

5.On clicking on Microsoft button, to authenticate- i am getting landed in error page.

6.Error URL: https://login.live.com/err.srf?lc=1033#error=invalid_request&error_description=The+provided+value+for+the+input+parameter+'redirect_uri'+is+not+valid.
+The+expected+value+is+'https://login.live.com/oauth20_desktop.srf'+or+a+URL+which+matches+the+redirect+URI+registered+for+this+client+application.

Queries:
1.Should i configure any thing in authconfig.cs?

2.Is there an option to verify the sign-in request that is getting sent from my application to confirm the syntax of the URL

1. Give me a proper Re-direct URL format, that i should be using to register in Microsoft Developer center. I have tried out all different URL Syntax that i came across.
