Can internal Dynamics CRM Roles be linked to Azure Active Directory Roles?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi,
We need to do three steps for a new user.

1. assign license;

2. assign role for security of D365 visiblity to show titles to user;

3. assign role in CRM to user.

Can 1 and 3 not be combined, or even 1,2,3 in Azure AD or On-Premise AD (less preferred but we use it as main on which Azure AD is synchronized instead of reversed (Azure AD leading).

    Hi Ulti001 

    Were you able to develop this or found any alternative?

    Regards,

    Only with custom development.  There's no native integration between Azure AD and Dynamics CRM.  CRM Online uses Office 365's provisioning methods, not Azure AD.  CRM On-prem only supports on-prem AD natively, to my knowledge.  

    There is no mapping in any of these of security roles to anything in AD, since they serve different purposes.

    [EDIT] Heh, I had this draft window open too long, it's already answered.

    Well, if you do find something that will do it, please post it here for everyone.  :-)

    Good Luck!

    Thank you. I do want something out of the box.

    Not without custom tools and/or development... I don't think so.  

    I worked on something similar to this with an Azure AD sync to webroles and it required that

    A. Web Roles and AD Security groups be the same name

    B. Custom C# program to sync them.
