Azure AD doesn't have any good code samples for java web apps with OpenID Connect at this time. The best you can do is use a java OpenID Connect library (http://openid.net/developers/libraries/) and modify it to conform to Azure AD's protocol (https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/active-directory-protocols-openid-connect-code/).
The users roles will show up as claims in the id_token if you configure your app correctly. This sample shows how to do so in .NET: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/samples/active-directory-dotnet-webapp-roleclaims/

How to authenticate for google ads api from a java backend application

I am going to write a java backend application that once a day should download data using google ads api.
I did something similar for google search console and I was using a service account in order to authenticate. I would like to use the same mechanism but I don't know how to link the service account to the google ads account.
I found this link but I don't have clear how to:
Request the domain administrator to delegate domain-wide authority to
your service account.
Can someone explain (it would be great with some code example) how to authenticate and use google ads api from a backend java application? Which is the easiest authentication mechanism to setup?
Thanks a lot

How to Import users from Azure AD using Java

I need to import user information from Azure AD and allow those users to sign into my application using their azure AD credentials.
Currently I am using Azure Graph API. I will be adding an application in the azure portal manually, will be getting the clientid, tenantid and secretkey from azure portal. In my application I am expecting the user to provide these three fields and using this I am calling the graph-api to get user-details.
My question is is it a right idea to expect the customer to add the application in their azure portal manually?
If not how can I import the data using java?
Accroding to the Authentication with Azure AD part of the Featuressection in the link, you need to use the OAuth 2.0 client credentials flow or the authorization code grant flow to acquire a token to call the Graph. And the two ways both need client_id, please refer to the link.
But you can see the Configuring multi-tenant applications section from the link to know how to let your application cross organizations.
Then using Azure Graph API in Java to create users for different tenants.

OAuth2 for Office365 REST API for Java Application

I have created a simple application in Java which Connects to my Office 365 Account and retrieve the unread messages. I am performing some text matching and pattern matching to generate some reports which I receive via Email.
I am using the below url with basic Authentication to do so.
https://outlook.office365.com/api/v1.0/me/messages?$filter=IsRead%20eq%20false
However, I have read a couple of articles and most of them have suggested that Basic Authentication will not be supported and suggested to use OAUTH2.0.
I am not sure how to use OAUTH2.0. A couple of articles mention about registering the Application with AAD for which i need to have access to Azure Management Portal which i do not have. Please can any one guide me how this can be done.
PS: I am using my Corporate Domain Account to access Office
You are correct that Basic will not continue to be supported. You do not need the Azure management portal to register an application, you can use the App Dev portal (apps.dev.microsoft.com) to get a client ID and secret.
Here's a walkthrough for creating a Java web app from scratch: https://dev.outlook.com/restapi/tutorial/java. It shows how to register the app and do the authentication.

Use OAuth2 to authentication users of different service providers in Google app engine Java

I am creating an application in Google App Engine java. In this application I have to authenticate the users using OAuth2. These users belongs to other Service provider lets say example.com(means they have their account on example.com). I checked the Google App Engine documentation about Authentication and Authorization through OAuth. In this documentation they just provide the way to authenticate and authorize the google users not the other domains user. I have also checked the OpenID functionality in google app engine but I don't need this because example.com don't provide OpenID endpoints to authenticate user. please help me to derive a solution to authenticate the user.
I solve this problem by myself. I use Google OAuth Client Library for Java. This library can handle OAuth 1.0 and OAuth2.0 communication.

GAE federated login and Linkedin

Hi I follow the given example for federated authentication in GAE.
Using Federated Authentication via OpenID in Google App Engine
In given example its provide the authentication of yahoo, google, myspace etc. I want to modify this example and provide the authentication of linkedin and twitter. Please tell me a way to do this.
GAE federated login uses OpenID protocol, which is supported by Yahoo, Google and Myspace. LinkedIn and Twitter do not support OpenID, instead they support OAuth.
Note: the GAE Oauth docs explain how your GAE app can be an OAuth provider (= other apps gain access to your app on behalf of users). What you are looking for is your app acting as OAuth consumer: your app accesses 3rd party profiles (LinkedIn, Twitter) on behalf of the users.
See pac4j-oauth OAuth client lib that enables you to authenticate users against various providers, including Google, Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter. It also enables accessing user's profile.
