Is there a way to have Power Pages create an Azure B2C user after creating a Contact?

Greetings, all. I am looking to use Azure B2C with Power Pages but need to prevent users from registering themselves. On the B2C side, that means we'd only have a Sign In flow and Password Reset flow.

 

The process we want is as follows:

  1. An admin user will create users' Contact records. [Achieved via Portal App]
  2. B2C accounts automatically get created to match Contact records. [Need help]
  3. Admin sends invite codes that users can use to access the portal. [Achieved via Portal Invitations]
  4. Users have to reset their B2C passwords on first sign-in. [Assuming we can achieve via Force Password Reset in Azure B2C]

 

The challenge I'm facing is Power Pages doesn't have any built-in support for #2 (creating B2C records), which either means someone has to manually create these B2C accounts OR we have to enable a sign-up flow, which is a security concern since anyone could create a B2C account that way.

 

Anyone have ideas? All suggestions welcome.

    Not out of the box, you will need to build something yourself in Dataverse etc

    To create in B2C you would use the Graph API and then some other steps, see my post here https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Discussions/Migrating-contacts-automatically/m-p/2140549/highlight/true#M2971

    You can on Create of the Contact, trigger a Power Automate flow that can create the opposite in B2C, but a better scenario would be to use the invitation process as it is now and when the person accepts the invite token, they will then be forced to log in via B2C, which then will create the External Identity record in Dataverse that is related to the Contact. No need to create the B2C object first.
