# Azure-Based Login

Clinics that have enabled **Azure Active Directory (Azure AD)** integration can allow staff to log in securely using their Microsoft Azure credentials. This login method eliminates the need to manage a separate password for Unite EMR. Azure login must be pre-configured by the clinic administrator. Users without valid Azure credentials will not be able to access the application through this method.

When Azure login is enabled, users bypass the standard Unite EMR login screen. Instead, they are redirected to the Microsoft login page, where they must authenticate using their Azure AD credentials. 

***

### Steps to Log In Using Azure

* Open your clinic-specific URL in any browser.
* On the login page, click the **SIGN IN WITH MICROSOFT AZURE** button.
