@akhilsambar-4119 Thanks for using Microsoft Q&A !!

I do not see any specific sample, however, can you check this tutorial to configuration Azure AD Authentication with Angular. Also, to enable MS authentication to django authentication backend, you can refer to django-microsoft-auth 2.4.0 if this helps.

Thanks for your reply,

I have registered both the apps in AAD, followed this link

in the following tutorial, they did not do anything in the backend code except registering the app with AAD. Is that process is secured?

@akhilsambar-4119 I thought you are looking to use any specific authentication mechanism for django backend so provided you django-auth 2.4.0. The tutorial enabled authentication and authorization for backend apps as well and so, Azure App service will take care of authentication and authorization part however, I haven't used it for django. Is your django api is up and running in Azure ? If not, please refer to this blog if this helps.
OR are having issues enabling authentication as mentioned in the document.
