Basic data for managing a Microsoft Teams environment

To manage a Microsoft Teams environment in One Identity Manager, the following basic data is relevant.

  • Target system types

    Target system types are required for configuring target system comparisons. Tables with outstanding objects are maintained with the target system types and settings are configured for provisioning memberships and single objects synchronization. Target system types also map objects in the Unified Namespace.

    For more information, see Post-processing outstanding objects.

  • Target system managers

    Target system managers for Exchange Online are also responsible for Microsoft Teams objects. Target system managers must be assigned to the Target systems | Exchange Online application role or a child application role.

    For more information, see the One Identity Manager Administration Guide for Connecting to Exchange Online.

  • Servers

    Servers must be informed of your server functionality in order to handle Microsoft Teams-specific processes in One Identity Manager. For example, 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.

    For more information about editing Job servers for Azure Active Directory components, see the One Identity Manager Administration Guide for Connecting to Azure Active Directory.

  • Configuration parameters

    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 a Microsoft Teams environment.

Configuration parameters for managing a Microsoft Teams environment

The following configuration parameters are available in One Identity Manager after the module has been installed.

Table 9: Configuration parameters
Configuration parameters Description

TargetSystem | AzureAD | ExchangeOnline | Teams

Preprocessor relevant configuration parameter for controlling database model components for Microsoft Teams target system administration. If the parameter is set, the target system components are available. Changes to this parameter require the database to be recompiled.

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.

QER | ITShop | AutoPublish | O3TTeam

Preprocessor relevant configuration parameter for automatically adding Microsoft Teams teams to the IT Shop. If the parameter is set, all teams are automatically assigned as products to the IT Shop. Changes to this parameter require the database to be recompiled.

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.

QER | ITShop | AutoPublish | O3TTeam | ExcludeList

List of all Microsoft Teams teams that must not be automatically assigned to the IT Shop. Each entry is part of a regular search pattern and supports regular expression notation.

Default project template for Microsoft Teams

A default project template ensures that all required information is added in One Identity Manager. This includes mappings, workflows, and the synchronization base object. If you do not use a default project template you must declare the synchronization base object in One Identity Manager yourself.

Use a default project template for initially setting up the synchronization project. For custom implementations, you can extend the synchronization project with the Synchronization Editor.

The project template uses mappings for the following schema types.
