🚀 Feature: Azure Active Directory Authentication

[wh1337]

🔖 Feature description

Currently, there are two ways to login. You have the GitHub OAuth 2 provider, and then you have your standard username password configuration.

I would like to propose an additional login method utilizing Azure Active Directory.

🎤 Why is this feature needed ?

Allowing users to authenticate with Azure Active Directory could aid in the adoption of Novu with Microsoft heavy companies.

✌️ How do you aim to achieve this?

There will need to be the addition of the following env vars (note: AAD is the standard abbreviation for Azure Active Directory)

AAD_CLIENT_ID
AAD_CLIENT_SECRET

Route: /v1/auth/aad Would check to see if the env vars are set. Like it does here for GitHub

Route: /v1/auth/aad/callback Exchange the code for a token, reach out to the Microsoft Graph and get the user details and store it in the database layer.

This has been brought up, however, there needs to be further discussion internally before we move forward. I would defer to @scopsy on this.

@cryptic-ai what is your use case for wanting this? Compliance, Security, Standard Integration, Easy of use, etc.
