Introduction - “Server Side App” - Auth Code Flow

This guide demonstrates how to create a “server-side” Python web application running locally (for development) that authenticates users with Microsoft Entra ID and authorizes access to the Microsoft Graph API using the Authorization Code Flow as a “confidential client” with a client secret.

Info: In the second tutorial, we will deploy this app to Azure

The client is considered confidential because the app runs solely on the server, and users do not have access to the client secret.

To better understand OAuth 2.0, I have created the following mind map and a series of follow-up tutorials that provide a basic overview of how OAuth works.

Im folgenden YouTube-Video versuche ich, einen kurzen und groben Überblick über das Thema „Was ist Philosophie?“ sowie deren Disziplinen zu vermitteln:

Disziplinen der Philosophie

In diesem Diagramm sind einige der wichtigsten philosophischen Disziplinen grob dargestellt.

I have started creating minimal mind maps about Software Architecture. I plan to extend them further in the future.

Software Architecture Roadmap

You start with architectural characteristics. Then you’ll need to get the logical components, pick a style and finally document your decision.

In the following mind map, I attempted to visualize some core concepts of MCP - Model Context Protocol

In the following mind map, I attempted to visualize some core concepts of OpenTelemetry The purpose of OpenTelemetry is to collect, process and export signals. The signals (telemetry data) which OpenTelemetry currently supports can be found on the right side of the mind map:

• Signals:
  • Traces
  • Metrics
  • Logs

The mind map illustrates the components that make up these signals and how they are interconnected.

To learn more about OpenTelemetry:

• Official docs: What is OpenTelemetry?
• A very helpful resource to getting started with OpenTelemetry is the following course from the Linux Foundation: Getting Started with OpenTelemetry
