Synchronize Users and Groups with
Microsoft Entra ID
Synchronizing Users and User Groups from Entra ID is best way to ensure user groups can
be properly leveraged in Universal ZTNA policies. There are two methods to synchronize
users with Universal ZTNA:
- Just in Time (JIT) Synchronization – this method has Universal ZTNA reach into
Entra ID and pull users and user groups on a polled basis. This method leverages
the Secure Application Access OIDC Application to integrate with Entra ID
APIs.
- System for Cross-Domain Identity Management (SCIM) Synchronization – this method
had Microsoft Entra ID push users and user groups from Entra ID into Universal
ZTNA. This method requires an enterprise application to be set up in Entra ID so
that automatic provisioning can be enabled.
