'TLS Mutual Authentication for Azure App Service
I've made a frontend using Azure Static web app (React). The backend is an Azure app service (a node REST API). I want to secure the backend so that the API is not accessible without a client certificate, so I turned on "client certificate mode required" in the app service settings. The problem is each time a user visits the frontend, the browser asks them to select a certificate. Is there any way around this so that the user does not have to select a certificate?

- This happens if you have enabled/Allowed the authentication with client certificates.
Is there any way around this so that the user does not have to select a certificate?
- You can disable the setting in Azure Portal, if you don't want authenticated requests (by users) to select the certificate.
Go to the Azure Portal => Your Web App => Configuration => General Settings => Under Incoming client certificates, change the setting to Optional
- If you don't want to disable , even you can provide
windows sign-inas authentication
