Adding Azure Active Directory groups to the IT Shop

When you assign a group to an IT Shop shelf, it can be requested by the shop customers. To ensure it can be requested, further prerequisites need to be guaranteed:

  • The group is not a dynamic group.

  • The group must be labeled with the IT Shop option.

  • The group must be assigned a service item.

    TIP: In the Web Portal, all products that can be requested are grouped together by service category. To make the group easier to find in the Web Portal, assign a service category to the service item.

  • If you only want the group to be assigned to employees through IT Shop requests, the group must also be labeled with the Use only in IT Shop option. Direct assignment to hierarchical roles or user accounts is no longer permitted.

NOTE: With role-based login, the IT Shop administrators can assign groups to IT Shop shelves. Target system administrators are not authorized to add groups to IT Shop.

Adding Azure Active Directory groups automatically to the IT Shop

The following steps can be used to automatically add Azure Active Directory groups to the IT Shop. Synchronization ensures that the Azure Active Directory groups are added to the IT Shop. If necessary, you can manually start synchronization with the Synchronization Editor. New Azure Active Directory groups created in One Identity Manager also are added automatically to the IT Shop.

To add Azure Active Directory groups automatically to the IT Shop

  1. In the Designer, set the QER | ITShop | AutoPublish | AADGroup configuration parameter.

  2. In order not to add Azure Active Directory groups to the IT Shop automatically, in the Designer, set the QER | ITShop | AutoPublish | AADGroup | ExcludeList configuration parameter.

    This configuration parameter contains a listing of all Azure Active Directory groups that should not be allocated to the IT Shop automatically. You can extend this list if required. To do this, enter the name of the groups in the configuration parameter. Names are listed in a pipe (|) delimited list. Regular expressions are supported.

  3. Compile the database.

The Azure Active Directory groups are added automatically to the IT Shop from now on.

The following steps are run to add an Azure Active Directory group to the IT Shop.

  1. A service item is determined for the Azure Active Directory group.

    The service item is tested for each Azure Active Directory group and modified if necessary. The name of the service item corresponds to the name of the Azure Active Directory group.

    • The service item is modified for Azure Active Directory groups with service items.

    • Azure Active Directory groups without service items are allocated new service items.

  2. The service item is assigned to either the Azure Active Directory groups | Security groups default service category or the Azure Active Directory groups | Distribution groups default service category.

  3. An application role for product owners is determined and the service item is assigned.

    Product owners can approve requests for membership in these Azure Active Directory groups. The default product owner is the Azure Active Directory group's owner.

    NOTE: The application role for the product owner must be added under the Request & Fulfillment | IT Shop | Product owner application role.

    • If the owner of the Azure Active Directory group is already a member of an application role for product owners, this application role is assigned to the service item. Therefore, all members of this application role become product owners of the Azure Active Directory group.

    • If the owner of the Azure Active Directory group is not yet a member of an application role for product owners, a new application role is created. The name of the application corresponds to the name of the owner.

      • If the owner is a user account, the user account's employee is added to the application role.

      • If it is a group of owners, the employees of all this group's user accounts are added to the application role.

  4. The Azure Active Directory group is labeled with the IT Shop option and assigned to the IT Shop groups Azure Active Directory shelf in the Identity & Access Lifecycle shop.

Subsequently, the shop's customers can use the Azure Active Directory to request memberships in Web Portal groups.

NOTE: If an Azure Active Directory group is irrevocably deleted from the One Identity Manager database, the associated service item is also deleted.

For more information about configuring the One Identity Manager IT Shop Administration Guide, see the IT Shop. For more information about requesting access requests in Web Portal, please refer to the One Identity Manager Web Portal User Guide.
