Register the Flask application within Microsoft Entra (Azure AD).
Authenticate and fetch user information (user.read scope) to confirm everything is set up correctly.
Create and configure an Azure Web App in the Azure Portal.
Deploy the Flask app directly to Azure using Visual Studio Code (VS Code).
Upload environment variables (.env file) securely to Azure App Service.
Test the deployed web application in Azure to verify it's working correctly with Entra ID authentication.
This tutorial covers essential topics such as Python Flask, Azure Web Apps, Azure App Service, Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory), OAuth authentication, environment variables management, cloud deployment, and DevOps practices.
By the end of this tutorial, you'll understand how to seamlessly integrate Flask with Azure Web Apps and Microsoft Entra ID for secure authentication, scalable cloud hosting, and efficient web application management.
