We are implementing a plugin on Jira. Our backend service are protected by ms token. Is there any way my application can access the parent frame's storage or are there any sdks which can do so? If not, is it fine to integrate msal sso within the application iframe?

Thanks

Hi @Harrison Chen ,

if I well understood your question, in a Jira app running inside an iframe, you generally cannot access the parent frame's localStorage/sessionStorage unless your iframe and the parent are on the same origin (same protocol, host, and port). Jira Cloud and your app are hosted on different origins, so browser same-origin policies prevent this.
