This sample shows how to use the Windows.Security.Credentials.UI.CredentialPicker class to retrieve credentials, which can then be passed to APIs that may require credentials (for example, HttpClient). This can be used in support of single sign on (SSO).

Note  This sample was created using one of the universal app templates available in Visual Studio. It shows how its solution is structured so it can run on both Windows 10 and Windows Phone 10.

This sample allows the user launch different types of credential prompts. You can choose one of three scenarios:

• Message
• Message and Caption
• Message, Caption, Save Credential Option, and a type of protocol.
