dotnet add package Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.AuthenticationEvents
Current Version: v1.1.0 (stable)
| Event | Purpose |
|-------|---------|
| OnTokenIssuanceStart | Add custom claims to tokens during issuance |
| OnAttributeCollectionStart | Customize attribute collection UI before display |
| OnAttributeCollectionSubmit | Validate/modify attributes after user submission |
| OnOtpSend | Custom OTP delivery (SMS, email, etc.) |
Add custom claims to access or ID tokens during sign-in.

After deploying your Function App, configure the custom extension in Entra ID:
Expose an API:
- Application ID URI: api://<your-function-app-name>.azurewebsites.net
- Scope: CustomAuthenticationExtension.Receive.Payload
API Permissions:
- Microsoft Graph: User.Read (delegated)
