The WPO365 | LOGIN plugin can help you to connect your WordPress website with users outside of your organization using Azure AD B2B or Azure AD B2C.
External identities
With External Identities in Azure Active Directory (Azure AD), you can allow people outside your organization to access your apps – such as your WordPress website – and resources, while letting them sign in using whatever identity they prefer. Your partners, distributors, suppliers, vendors, and other guest users can “bring their own identities.” Whether they have a corporate or government-issued digital identity, or an unmanaged social identity like Google or Facebook, they can use their own credentials to sign in.
Azure AD supports a variety of scenarios from business-to-business (B2B) collaboration to access management for consumer/customer- or citizen-facing applications (business-to-customer, or B2C).
- Azure AD B2B Collaborating with business partners from external organizations like suppliers, partners, vendors. Users appear as guest users in your directory.
- Azure AD B2C Customers of your product. These users are managed in a separate Azure AD directory.
See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/external-identities/compare-with-b2c for a full comparison of the two External Identities solutions.
