AuthenticationContext

Retrieves authentication tokens from Azure Active Directory.

For usages, check out the "sample" folder at: https://github.com/AzureAD/azure-activedirectory-library-for-python

Creates a new AuthenticationContext object.

By default the authority will be checked against a list of known Azure Active Directory authorities. If the authority is not recognized as one of these well known authorities then token acquisition will fail. This behavior can be turned off via the validate_authority parameter below.
