Instead of storing passwords in Django, it redirects users through an OAuth2 flow to your organization's identity provider, then creates or updates Django user accounts based on claims returned from ADFS. It handles the full redirect cycle\u2014login initiation, ADFS callback, token validation via cryptography and PyJWT, and automatic group assignment\u2014so developers can focus on application logic rather than directory integration.\n\nThe package is designed for intranet and cloud environments where centralized identity management is already in place. It depends on django, requests, urllib3, cryptography, and PyJWT to manage HTTP communication, certificate validation, and token verification. Configuration is done through Django settings, and it provides optional middleware to enforce login across your application and template tags for login/logout links.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are building a Django application in an organization using ADFS or Azure AD for identity management. The package is production-stable, actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and handles the complex OAuth2 and token validation logic so you don't have to. Install it only if your deployment environment has an ADFS or Azure AD endpoint already configured; it is not useful for standalone Django apps or those using other identity providers."},"id":"django-auth-adfs","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-auth-adfs","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/django-auth-adfs.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/django-auth-adfs/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-01-08","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"django-auth-adfs","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A Django authentication backend for Microsoft ADFS and AzureAD"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":147754,"position":11052,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.16.0"}
