The MSAL library preview for JavaScript enables Single Page Applications to authenticate users with Microsoft Azure Active Directory (AAD) accounts, Microsoft accounts (MSA), accounts in social identity providers like Facebook, Google, LinkedIn etc. and get access to Microsoft Cloud services such as Microsoft Graph.
The identity management services that the library interacts with are Microsoft Azure Active Directory, Microsoft Azure AD B2C and Microsoft Accounts.
This library is suitable for use in a production environment. We provide the same production level support for this library as we do our current production libraries. During the preview we may make changes to the API, internal cache format, and other mechanisms of this library, which you will be required to take along with bug fixes or feature improvements. This may impact your application. For instance, a change to the cache format may impact your users, such as requiring them to sign in again. An API change may require you to update your code. When we provide the General Availability release we will require you to update to the General Availability version within six months, as applications written using a preview version of library may no longer work.
Microsoft Authentication Library provides 3 libraries as separate packages. You can read more details about them in the MSAL Wiki.

This library controls how users sign-in and access services. We recommend you always take the latest version of our library in your app when possible. We use semantic versioning so you can control the risk associated with updating your app. As an example, always downloading the latest minor version number (e.g. x.y.x) ensures you get the latest security and feature enhanements but our API surface remains the same. You can always see the latest version and release notes under the Releases tab of GitHub.
If you find a security issue with our libraries or services please report it to secure@microsoft.com with as much detail as possible. Your submission may be eligible for a bounty through the Microsoft Bounty program. Please do not post security issues to GitHub Issues or any other public site. We will contact you shortly upon receiving the information. We encourage you to get notifications of when security incidents occur by visiting this page and subscribing to Security Advisory Alerts.
