Verification

This section provides steps to verify that the integration between Microsoft Entra ID and the Delinea Platform provisions users and groups for the supported use cases.

Because automatic provisioning is configured, the Microsoft Entra provisioning service will automatically detect changes in assigned users and groups and synchronize the changes to the Delinea Platform after running provisioning cycles every 40 minutes.

If you want to immediately verify how changes in users and groups are synchronized to the Delinea Platform, you can initiate on-demand provisioning. In this case, the provisioning service will detect changes in users and groups and attempt to synchronize the changes to the Delinea Platform immediately. The changes are normally synchronized to the platform in minutes. Following are the steps for initiating on-demand provisioning that apply to all the use cases:

  1. In Azure Portal, navigate to Entra ID > Enterprise Applications.

  2. Select the enterprise application that you created for this integration.

  3. In the left pane, navigate to Provisioning > Provision on demand.

  4. In the drop-down list, select the user or group that you want to provision and select Provision.

    If the on-demand provisioning of the user or group was successful, on the Provision on demand page, Success is displayed under 4. Perform action, and the Perform Action section displays the details of the provisioning operation. For example, if a user’s updated attributes were successfully provisioned to the Delinea Platform, the attribute values that were modified for the user in the platform are displayed, as shown below. To open the Perform action section, select the View details link under 4. Perform action.

The following sections describe how to verify each use case.
