How to authenticate azure front door URL with azure AD ?

Question

Hi Team,

We are using azure Front Door for our website, behind azure FD we have configure azure app service where frontend code is deployed.
We want to authenticate the FD URL using Azure AD credentials , Please guide how we can implement this ?

Also, we tried authentication on the Azure App Service, after that when we hit the FD URL its asks for the the AD credentials.
Once credentials accepted FD URL re-directs to azure app service URL.

Please let us know how we can stop the re-directing of FD URL to azure app service URL
