Mapping a SharePoint Online environment in One Identity Manager

One Identity Manager offers simplified user administration for SharePoint Online environments. One Identity Manager concentrates on the mapping of site collections, sites, and groups that exist within a cloud environment.

One Identity Manager provides company employees with the user accounts required to allow you to use different mechanisms for connecting employees to their user accounts. You can also manage user accounts independently of employees and therefore set up administrator user accounts.

The system information for the SharePoint Online structure is loaded into the One Identity Manager database during data synchronization. It is only possible to customize certain system information in One Identity Manager due to the complex dependencies and far reaching effects of changes.

For more information about the SharePoint Online structure, see the SharePoint Online documentation from Microsoft.

Architecture overview

To access SharePoint Online tenant data, the SharePoint Online connector is installed on a synchronization server. The synchronization server ensures data is compared between the One Identity Manager database and SharePoint Online. The SharePoint Online connector is part of the SharePoint Online Module and responsible for communicating with the SharePoint Online part of Microsoft Office 365 subscriptions in the cloud. The Microsoft CSOM (Client-side object model) is used for accessing the SharePoint Online data.

NOTE: For access to the data of a SharePoint Online tenant, the Azure Active Directory tenant to which the SharePoint Online tenant is connected must be synchronized.

For more information about synchronizing an Azure Active Directory tenant, see the One Identity Manager Administration Guide for Connecting to Azure Active Directory.
