ADAL to MSAL Migration Overview Migrate Azure AD authentication from ADAL (Active Directory Authentication Library) to MSAL (Microsoft Authentication Library). ADAL reached end of support in June 2023, and MSAL is the recommended replacement for all Azure AD / Microsoft Entra ID authentication scenarios. The core change is replacing AuthenticationContext with MSAL's fluent application builders and converting resource-based token requests to scope-based requests.
