# Auth integration for 3rd party applications

Third party apps can integrate with BF Launcher via multiple ways to achieve a single sign-on experience.   The available options are:

1. For **OIDC** providers, SSO via web session cookies using Chrome Custom Tab (CCT) protocol.
2. **MSAL SDK** for Entra ID, either session cookies or via brokered authentication in InTune Shared Device mode.
3. **BlueFletch's LauncherProvider SDK** — if incorporated within your application, will allow your application to retrieve the currently logged-in user and session/site information.
4. **Intent data or custom URI at Launch** — Launcher supports the ability to pass the session information as a URI or intent extras at the time the user launches your application from the home screen.
5. **Enterprise Password Manager (EPM)** — can be used if the application is not able to use any of the above methods to auto-fill credentials automatically.

See diagram below for guidance on which integration option to take.
