Configuration parameters for managing Exchange Online environments

Use configuration parameters to configure the behavior of the system's basic settings. One Identity Manager provides default settings for different configuration parameters. Check the configuration parameters and modify them as necessary to suit your requirements.

Configuration parameters are defined in the One Identity Manager modules. Each One Identity Manager module can also install configuration parameters. In the Designer, you can find an overview of all configuration parameters in the Base data > General > Configuration parameters category.

For more information, see Configuration parameters for managing an Exchange Online environment.

Synchronizing an Exchange Online environment

The One Identity Manager Service is responsible for synchronizing data between the One Identity Manager database and Exchange Online.

This sections explains how to:

  • Set up synchronization to import initial data from Exchange Online Organization to the One Identity Manager database.

  • Adjust a synchronization configuration

  • Start and deactivate the synchronization.

  • Analyze synchronization results.

TIP: Before you set up synchronization with an Exchange Online organization, familiarize yourself with the Synchronization Editor. For more information about this tool, see the One Identity Manager Target System Synchronization Reference Guide.

Setting up Exchange Online synchronization

The Synchronization Editor provides a project template that can be used to set up Exchange Online synchronization. You use these project templates to create synchronization projects with which you import the data from an Exchange Online organization into your One Identity Manager database. In addition, the required processes are created that are used for the provisioning of changes to target system objects from the One Identity Manager database into the target system.

Prerequisites for synchronizing Exchange Online are:

  • The Azure Active Directory tenant is declared in One Identity Manager.

  • Synchronization of the Azure Active Directory system is carried out regularly.

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

To load Exchange Online objects into the One Identity Manager database for the first time

  1. Prepare a user account in the Azure Active Directory tenant with sufficient permissions for synchronization.

  2. One Identity Manager parts for managing Exchange Online systems are available if the TargetSystem | AzureAD | ExchangeOnline configuration parameter is set.

    • In the Designer, check if the configuration parameter is set. Otherwise, set the configuration parameter and compile the database.

      NOTE: If you disable the configuration parameter at a later date, model components and scripts that are not longer required, are disabled. SQL procedures and triggers are still carried out. For more information about the behavior of preprocessor relevant configuration parameters and conditional compiling, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

    • Other configuration parameters are installed when the module is installed. Check the configuration parameters and modify them as necessary to suit your requirements.

  3. Install and configure a synchronization server and declare the server as a Job server in One Identity Manager.
  4. Create a synchronization project with the Synchronization Editor.

Users and permissions for synchronizing with Exchange Online

The following users are involved in synchronizing One Identity Manager with Exchange Online.

Table 2: Users for synchronization
User Permissions

User account for accessing Exchange Online

To synchronize Exchange Online, provide a user account with at least the following permissions.

  • Member of the Recipient Management Exchange Online role group

  • Member of the Records Management Exchange Online role group

  • Member of the View-Only Organization Management Exchange Online role group

  • Member of the Security Group Creation and Membership Exchange Online role group

    NOTE: Create a new role group in Exchange Online. Assign the role and the user account to this role group.

  • Member of the Group administrator Azure Active Directory administrator role

NOTE: The user account used to access Exchange Online must not use multifactor authentication to allow automated logins in a user context.

Use the Exchange Admin Center to assign Exchange Online role groups to user accounts. Use the Azure Active Directory Admin Center to assign the Azure Active Directory administrator role to the user account. For example, you can reach the Admin Center over https://admin.microsoft.com/. For more information on managing permissions in Exchange Online and in Azure Active Directory, see the Microsoft documentation.

One Identity Manager Service user account

The user account for the One Identity Manager Service requires user permissions to carry out operations at file level (adding and editing directories and files).

The user account must belong to the Domain users group.

The user account must have the Login as a service extended user permissions.

The user account requires permissions for the internal web service.

NOTE: If the One Identity Manager Service runs under the network service (NT Authority\NetworkService), you can grant permissions for the internal web service with the following command line call:

netsh http add urlacl url=http://<IP address>:<port number>/ user="NT AUTHORITY\NETWORKSERVICE"

The user account needs full access to the One Identity Manager Service installation directory in order to automatically update One Identity Manager.

In the default installation, One Identity Manager is installed under:

  • %ProgramFiles(x86)%\One Identity (on 32-bit operating systems)

  • %ProgramFiles%\One Identity (on 64-bit operating systems)

User for accessing the One Identity Manager database

The Synchronization default system user is provided to run synchronization using an application server.
