App owns data embed While Authenticating with Non-Azure AD provider

@collinq  The methods only seem to use azure as as authentication method. 

What I am trying to do is 

- authenticate user of my app using adfs federation service ✓ done 

-embed reports within my app using the app -owns data embedding method by registering an azure as app as service principal. ✓ done

 

I can do these separately but cannot do both in the same app for some reason.
