The Discussion

Gerald So it doesn't automatically keeps the user logged in the next time you run the app?

Devhammer @Gerald
For persistent login or single sign-on with Microsoft Accounts, I'd have a look at using Live Connect for login, as discussed here:

For other account types, check out this post:
Hope that helps!

Devhammer @Gerald - FYI, I published a new post in the series that covers persistent logins with Azure Mobile Services: http://bit.ly/10U0698 and we also just finished recording the next episode of DevRadio based on that post. We walk through how to enable persistent logins using Twitter (the process is essentially the same for the other identity providers as well), and how to leverage the server-side support for making HTTP requests to retrieve additional user information, such as the Twitter screen name for the logged in user. Should be out in the next couple weeks.
