Table 34: Main data for a user identity

Property

Description

Azure Active Directory user account

Name of the Azure Active Directory user account used by the identity.

Issuer

Issuer of the identity, Facebook for example. Local user accounts use the name of the Azure Active Directory B2C tenant's default domain, for example <your organization>.onmicrosoft.com.

Assigned ID

ID used to log in depending on sign-in type. If the sign-in type is emailAddress, the ID must be a valid email address, if it is userName the ID must be a valid local part of an email address, and if it is federated, the issuer expects a unique identifier of the federated account.

Sign-in type

Ways in which a user can sign in to the directory. For example, emailAddress or userName for local user accounts and federated for social network identities.

Azure Active Directory groups

Azure Active Directory recognizes several group types into which you can organize users and groups to regulate access to resources or email distribution, for example.

Azure Active Directory groups are loaded into One Identity Manager by synchronization. You can edit individual main data of the group and you can create new security groups in One Identity Manager. However, you cannot create more group types in One Identity Manager.

To add users to groups, you assign the groups directly to users. This can be assignments of groups to departments, cost centers, locations, business roles, or the IT Shop.

NOTE: Assignments to Azure Active Directory groups that are synchronized with the local Active Directory are not allowed in One Identity Manager. These groups cannot be requested through the web portal. You can only manage these groups in your locally. For more information, see the Azure Active Directory documentation from Microsoft.

The group types supported in One Identity Manager are listed below.

Table 35: Support groups types

Group type

Description

Security group

Resource permissions are distributed through security groups. User accounts and other groups are added to security groups, which makes administration easier.

Security groups are loaded into One Identity Manager by synchronization. You can edit security groups in One Identity Manager and also create new ones.

Office 365 group

Office 365 groups are loaded into One Identity Manager by synchronization. You can edit Office 365 groups in One Identity Manager but

you can only create new Office 365 groups in One Identity Manager if the Exchange Online Module in installed. For more information, see the One Identity Manager Administration Guide for Connecting to Exchange Online.

Distribution group

Distribution groups are used to send emails to group members. Distribution groups are loaded into One Identity Manager by synchronization. You can edit distribution groups in One Identity Manager but you cannot create them in One Identity Manager.

Mail-enabled security groups

Mail-enabled security groups are security groups that are used as distribution groups.

Mail-enabled security groups are loaded into One Identity Manager by synchronization. You can edit mail-enabled security groups in One Identity Manager but you can only create new mail-enabled security groups in One Identity Manager if the Exchange Online Module is installed. For more information, see the One Identity Manager Administration Guide for Connecting to Exchange Online.

Dynamic group

Members of a dynamic group are not strictly assigned, but determined through defined rules. Dynamic groups are loaded into One Identity Manager by synchronization. You can change dynamic groups in One Identity Manager. You cannot create new dynamic groups in One Identity Manager.
