I also try the sample apps.

In windows store app, it will remember userID、password and permission until I set to sign-out.

But in windows desktop app, when I launch the desktop's app, it always ask user's permission.

How can I remember the user's permission?

Does anyone have similar experiences?

Answer 1

When you initialize your AuthClient you need to pass in some Scopes that grant permissions to different privileges, a number of these scopes affect preserving login information, namely: wl.signin and wl.offline_access

These scopes will allow your application to sign in and the persist the credentials over multiple sessions.

There is a sample project avaliable (in Android not C#) which more or less what you are looking for: https://github.com/peternied/LiveLogin
