# Self-service sign-up

When sharing an application with external users, you might not always know in advance who will need access to the application. As an alternative to sending invitations directly to individuals, you can allow external users to sign up for specific applications themselves by enabling self-service sign-up. You can create a personalized sign-up experience by customizing the self-service sign-up user flow. For example, you can provide options to sign up with Azure AD or social identity providers and collect information about the user during the sign-up process.

When a user wants to sign in to your application, whether it's a web, mobile, desktop, or single-page application (SPA), the application initiates an authorization request to the user flow-provided endpoint. The user flow defines and controls the user's experience. When the user completes the sign-up user flow, Azure AD generates a token and redirects the user back to your application. Upon completion of sign-up, a guest account is provisioned for the user in the directory. Multiple applications can use the same user flow.
