How to Add Authentication to .NET MAUI Apps
This tutorial shows how to add Okta-based authentication to a .NET MAUI application, covering project setup, OpenID Connect configuration, sign-in, sign-out, and platform integration. It uses IdentityModel.OidcClient, an OktaClient wrapper, an OktaClientConfiguration class, and a WebBrowserAuthenticator implementation to connect the application to Okta’s browser-based authorization flow. The walkthrough creates a native OIDC client with the Okta CLI, registers redirect and logout URIs using myapp://callback, configures dependency injection, and updates the UI to display claims after login. For Android, it adds a WebAuthenticationCallbackActivity with an intent filter for the myapp scheme and enables Custom Tabs visibility in AndroidManifest.xml. The post includes troubleshooting for NuGet configuration and runtime-pack errors, but notes that the Okta CLI was deprecated and the original instructions no longer work exactly as written after the May 2025 plan change.

The best engineering reads, once a week.
