Users and permissions for synchronizing with Azure Active Directory

The following users are involved in synchronizing One Identity Manager with an Azure Active Directory tenant.

Table 2: Users for synchronization
User Permissions
User for accessing Azure Active Directory

You must provide a user account with the following authorizations for full synchronization of Azure Active Directory tenant objects with the supplied One Identity Manager default configuration.

  • Member in the Global administrator organization role

One Identity Manager Service user account

The user account for One Identity Manager Service requires permissions to carry out operations at file level. For example, assigning permissions and creating 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 access permissions to the internal web service.

NOTE: If One Identity Manager Service runs under the network service (NT Authority\NetworkService), you can issue access 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 execute synchronization with an application server.

Integrating One Identity Manager as enterprise application in Azure Active Directory

To synchronize data between One Identity Manager and Azure Active Directory, you must integrate One Identity Manager as an application in the Azure Active Directory tenants. The Azure Active Directory connector authenticates itself in One Identity Manager tenants using the Azure Active Directory application.

NOTE: An application ID is created when you add One Identity Manager as an application in Azure Active Directory. You need this application ID for setting up synchronization.

For more detailed information about integrating applications into Azure Active Directory, see the Azure Active Directory documentation from Microsoft.

To configure One Identity Manager as an application in Azure Active Directory

  1. Log in to the Microsoft Azure Management Portal (https://manage.windowsazure.com) and create a new One Identity Manager application for your directory.

    The following settings are recommended:

    • Select the Add an application my organization is developing link.

    • Set One Identity Manager to be a Public client/native (mobile & desktop) application.

  2. For this application, configure the following permissions for Microsoft Graph.

    • Permissions of Delegated type:

      • User.Read (Sign in and read user profile)

      • User.ReadWrite (Read and write access to user profile)

      • User.ReadWrite.All (Read and write all users’ full profile)

      • Group.ReadWrite.All (Read and write all groups)

      • Directory.ReadWrite.All (Read and write directory data)

      • Directory.AccessAsUser.All (Access directory as the signed in user)

      • openid (Sign users in)

It is not recommended to configure One Identity Manager as the web application because it can lead to limitations in functionality. For example, resetting passwords or administration role assignments would not be supported. If, however, you still want to register One Identity Manager as the web application, configure the following web application permissions for Windows Azure Active Directory.

  • Permissions of Application type:

    • Device.ReadWrite.All (Read and write devices)

    • Directory.Read.All (Read directory data)

    • Member.Read.Hidden (Read all hidden memberships)

    • Directory.ReadWrite.All (Read and write directory data)

    • Domain.ReadWrite.All (Read and write domains)

    • Application.ReadWrite.OwnedBy (Manage apps that this app creates or owns)

    • Application.ReadWrite.All (Read and write all applications)

Setting up the synchronization server

To set up synchronization with an Azure Active Directory tenant, a server must be available with the following software installed on it:

  • Windows operating system

    The following versions are supported:

    • Windows Server 2008 R2 (non-Itanium based 64-bit) service pack 1 or later

    • Windows Server 2012

    • Windows Server 2012 R2

    • Windows Server 2016

    • Windows Server 2019

  • Microsoft .NET Framework Version 4.7.2 or later

    NOTE: Take the target system manufacturer's recommendations into account.
  • One Identity Manager Service, Azure Active Directory connector
    • Install One Identity Manager components with the installation wizard.
      1. Select the Select installation modules with existing database option.
      2. Select the Server | Job server | Azure Active Directory machine role.

All One Identity Manager Service actions are executed against the target system environment on the synchronization server. Data entries required for synchronization and administration with the One Identity Manager database are processed by the synchronization server. The synchronization server must be declared as a Job server in One Identity Manager.

NOTE: If several target system environments of the same type are synchronized under the same synchronization server, it is recommended that you set up a Job server for each target system for performance reasons. This avoids unnecessary swapping of connections to target systems because a Job server only has to process tasks of the same type (re-use of existing connections).

Use the One Identity Manager Service to install the Server Installer. The program executes the following steps:

  • Sets up a Job server.

  • Specifies machine roles and server function for the Job server.

  • Remotely installs One Identity Manager Service components corresponding to the machine roles.

  • Configures the One Identity Manager Service.

  • Starts the One Identity Manager Service.

NOTE: To generate processes for the Job server, you need the provider, connection parameters, and the authentication data. By default, this information is determined from the database connection data. If the Job server runs through an application server, you must configure extra connection data in the Designer. For detailed information about setting up Job servers, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

NOTE: The program performs a remote installation of the One Identity Manager Service. Local installation of the service is not possible with this program. Remote installation is only supported within a domain or a trusted domain.

To remotely install the One Identity Manager Service, you must have an administrative workstation on which the One Identity Manager components are installed. For detailed information about installing a workstation, see the One Identity Manager Installation Guide.

To remotely install and configure One Identity Manager Service on a server

  1. Start the Server Installer program on your administrative workstation.

  2. On the Database connection page, enter the valid connection credentials for the One Identity Manager database.

  3. On the Server properties page, specify the server on which you want to install the One Identity Manager Service.

    1. Select a Job server from the Server menu.

      - OR -

      To create a new Job server, click Add.

    2. Enter the following data for the Job server.

      • Server: Name of the Job server.

      • Queue: Name of the queue to handle the process steps. Each One Identity Manager Service within the network must have a unique queue identifier. The process steps are requested by the Job queue using this unique queue identifier. The queue identifier is entered in the One Identity Manager Service configuration file.

      • Full server name: Full server name in accordance with DNS syntax.

        Syntax:

        <Name of servers>.<Fully qualified domain name>

      NOTE: You can use the Extended option to make changes to other properties for the Job server. You can also edit the properties later with the Designer.

  4. On the Machine roles page, select Azure Active Directory.

  5. On the Server functions page, select Azure Active Directory connector (via Microsoft Graph).

  6. On the Service Settings page, enter the connection data and check the One Identity Manager Service configuration.

    NOTE: The initial service configuration is predefined. If further changes need to be made to the configuration, you can do this later with the Designer. For detailed information about configuring the service, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

Creating a synchronization project for initial synchronization of an Azure Active Directory tenant

Use the Synchronization Editor to configure synchronization between the One Identity Manager database and Azure Active Directory. The following describes the steps for initial configuration of a synchronization project. For more detailed information about setting up synchronization, see the One Identity Manager Target System Synchronization Reference Guide.

After the initial configuration, you can customize and configure workflows within the synchronization project. Use the workflow wizard in the Synchronization Editor for this. The Synchronization Editor also provides different configuration options for a synchronization project.

Have the following information available for setting up a synchronization project.

Table 3: Information required to set up a synchronization project
Data Explanation

Application ID

Application ID created when One Identity Manager is added as the tenant's application.

Login domain

Name of the domain for logging in to Azure Active Directory. You can use the base domain or your tenant's verified domain.

User account and password for logging in

User account and password for authentication on Azure Active Directory using the One Identity Manager application. Make a user account available with sufficient permissions. For more information, see Users and permissions for synchronizing with Azure Active Directory.

Key for authenticating as a web application

If you have registered One Identity Manager as a web application in your tenant, you require the generated key.

NOTE: The key is only valid for a limited period and must be renewed when it expires.

Synchronization server for Azure Active Directory

All One Identity Manager Service actions are executed against the target system environment on the synchronization server. Data entries required for synchronization and administration with the One Identity Manager database are processed by the synchronization server.

The One Identity Manager Service with the Azure Active Directory connector must be installed on the synchronization server.

The synchronization server must be declared as a Job server in One Identity Manager. Use the following properties when you set up the Job server.

Table 4: Additional properties for the Job server
Property Value
Server function Azure Active Directory connector (using Microsoft Graph)
Machine role

Server | Job server | Azure Active Directory

For more information, see Setting up the synchronization server.

One Identity Manager database connection data

  • Database server

  • Database

  • SQL Server login and password

  • Specifies whether integrated Windows authentication is used. This type of authentication is not recommended. If you decide to use it anyway, ensure that your environment supports Windows authentication.

Remote connection server

To configure synchronization with a target system, One Identity Manager must load the data from the target system. One Identity Manager communicates directly with the target system to do this. Sometimes direct access from the workstation, on which the Synchronization Editor is installed, is not possible. For example, because of the firewall configuration or the workstation does not fulfill the necessary hardware and software requirements. If direct access is not possible from the workstation, you can set up a remote connection.

The remote connection server and the workstation must be in the same Active Directory domain.

Remote connection server configuration:

  • One Identity Manager Service is started

  • RemoteConnectPlugin is installed

  • Azure Active Directory connector is installed

The remote connection server must be declared as a Job server in One Identity Manager. The Job server name is required.

TIP: The remote connection server requires the same configuration as the synchronization server (with regard to the installed software and entitlements). Use the synchronization as remote connection server at the same time, by simply installing the RemoteConnectPlugin as well.

For more detailed information about setting up a remote connection, see the One Identity Manager Target System Synchronization Reference Guide.

NOTE: The following sequence describes how to configure a synchronization project if the Synchronization Editor is both:

  • Executed in default mode

  • Started from the Launchpad

If you execute the project wizard in expert mode or directly from the Synchronization Editor, additional configuration settings can be made. Follow the project wizard instructions through these steps.

To set up an initial synchronization project for an Azure Active Directory tenant

  1. Start the Launchpad and log in to the One Identity Manager database.

    NOTE: If synchronization is executed by an application server, connect the database through the application server.

  2. Select the Target system type Azure Active Directory entry and click Start.

    This starts the Synchronization Editor's project wizard.

  1. On the System access page, specify how One Identity Manager can access the target system.

    • If access is possible from the workstation on which you started the Synchronization Editor, do not change any settings.

    • If access is not possible from the workstation on which you started the Synchronization Editor, you can set up a remote connection.

      Enable the Connect using remote connection server option and select the server to be used for the connection under Job server.

  1. On the Azure Active Directory tenant page, enter the basic data for your tenant.
    • Under Client ID, enter the application ID that was generated in the integration of One Identity Manager as an application of the tenant.
    • Under Login domain, enter the base domain or a verified domain of your tenant.
  2. On the Authentication page, select the type of login and enter the required login data.
    1. If you have integrated One Identity Manager as a native client application in your tenant, select Authenticate as a native client application and enter the user account and password for logging in to the target system.
    2. If you have integrated One Identity Manager as a web application in your tenant, select the Authenticate as a web application option and enter the key that was generated during registration of One Identity Manager as an application of the tenant.

  1. On the One Identity Manager Connection tab, test the data for connecting to the One Identity Manager database. The data is loaded from the connected database. Reenter the password.

    NOTE: If you use an unencrypted One Identity Manager database and have not yet saved any synchronization projects to the database, you need to enter all connection data again. This page is not shown if a synchronization project already exists.

  2. The wizard loads the target system schema. This may take a few minutes depending on the type of target system access and the size of the target system.

  1. On the Restrict target system access page, specify how system access should work. You have the following options:
    Table 5: Specify target system access
    Option Meaning

    Read-only access to target system.

    Specifies that a synchronization workflow is only to be set up for the initial loading of the target system into the One Identity Manager database.

    The synchronization workflow has the following characteristics:

    • Synchronization is in the direction of One Identity Manager.
    • Processing methods in the synchronization steps are only defined for synchronization in the direction of One Identity Manager.

    Read/write access to target system. Provisioning available.

    Specifies whether a provisioning workflow is to be set up in addition to the synchronization workflow for the initial loading of the target system.

    The provisioning workflow displays the following characteristics:

    • Synchronization is in the direction of the Target system.
    • Processing methods are only defined in the synchronization steps for synchronization in the direction of the Target system.
    • Synchronization steps are only created for such schema classes whose schema types have write access.
  1. On the Synchronization server page, select a synchronization server to execute synchronization.

    If the synchronization server is not declared as a Job server in the One Identity Manager database yet, you can add a new Job server.

    1. Click to add a new Job server.

    2. Enter a name for the Job server and the full server name conforming to DNS syntax.

    3. Click OK.

      The synchronization server is declared as a Job server for the target system in the One Identity Manager database.

      NOTE: After you save the synchronization project, ensure that this server is set up as a synchronization server.
  1. To close the project wizard, click Finish.

    This creates and allocates a default schedule for regular synchronization. Enable the schedule for regular synchronization.

    The synchronization project is created, saved, and enabled immediately.

    NOTE: If enabled, a consistency check is carried out. If errors occur, a message appears. You can decide whether the synchronization project can remain activated or not.

    Check the errors before you use the synchronization project. To do this, in the General view on the Synchronization Editor‘s start page, click Verify project.

    NOTE: If you do not want the synchronization project to be activated immediately, disable the Activate and save the new synchronization project automatically option. In this case, save the synchronization project manually before closing the Synchronization Editor.

    NOTE: The connection data for the target system is saved in a variable set and can be modified in the Configuration | Variables category in the Synchronization Editor.

NOTE:

Following a synchronization, employees are automatically created for the user accounts in the default installation. If an account definition for the tenant is not yet known at the time of synchronization, user accounts are linked with employees. However, account definitions are not assigned. The user accounts are therefore in a Linked state.

To manage the user accounts using account definitions, assign an account definition and a manage level to these user accounts.

To select user accounts through account definitions

  1. Create an account definition.
  2. Assign an account definition to the tenant.
  3. Assign a user account in the Linked state to the account definition. The account definition's default manage level is applied to the user account.
    1. In the Manager, select the Azure Active Directory | User accounts | Linked but not configured | <Tenant> category.
    2. Select the Assign account definition to linked accounts task.

    3. In the Account definition menu, select the account definition.

    4. Select the user accounts that contain the account definition.

    5. Save the changes.
