Send direct link to invite B2B User in Azure AD Enterprise App

How do I send a direct link to my Azure AD Enterprise Application to an External guest user?

For example, a brand new gmail account that doesn't have a microsoft account, I don't want to invite them via email. I want to just send an email with a link to my app, they do not have a microsoft account setup.

This describes exactly what I want:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/b2b/redemption-experience#redemption-through-a-direct-link

But it doesn't say how to actually do it. This is from the link above:

A guest inviter can invite a guest user by sending out a direct link to a shared app. For the guest user, the redemption experience is as easy as signing in to the app that was shared with them. They can click a link to the app, review and accept the privacy terms, and then seamlessly access the app. In most cases, guest users no longer need to click a redemption URL in an invitation email.

You're right . I think it should be a documentation issue. There aren't any steps about how to approach it. I have give a feedback to this documentation and also involve this documenation owner to fix this. I will updated if it has any process. – Wayne Yang

Actually this is done through the Graph API, which isn't mentioned in that documentation.

https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/docs/api-reference/beta/api/invitation_post

HTTP request POST /invitations

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/invitations
Content-type: application/json
Content-length: 551

{
  "invitedUserEmailAddress": "[email protected]",
  "inviteRedirectUrl": "https://myapp.com"
}

sendInvitationMessage boolean is false by default. Which means an invitation is not sent to the user. However, the user will still need to "redeem" the invitation (create a Microsoft account, like setup their password).

When you POST to /invitations you can actually post the entire invitation object, which also isn't clear in these docs.

{
  "invitedUserDisplayName": "string",
  "invitedUserEmailAddress": "string",
  "invitedUserMessageInfo": {"@odata.type": "microsoft.graph.invitedUserMessageInfo"},
  "sendInvitationMessage": false,
  "inviteRedirectUrl": "string",
  "inviteRedeemUrl": "string",
  "status": "string",
  "invitedUser": [{"@odata.type": "microsoft.graph.user"}]
}
