Microsoft Entra ID integration

Keep the people behind every assignment current, straight from your directory.

Choose the Microsoft Entra ID groups that belong in AssetCenter and let your directory keep People current. No retyping names, no leavers still holding equipment on paper.

Microsoft Entra ID is the directory that used to be called Azure Active Directory. If your notes still say Azure AD, it is the same directory and the same groups.

What you get

Connect the directory behind your team

The people in your asset records come from the identity directory your organization already maintains, so the list of who can hold equipment is never the thing that went stale.

Directory and identity

Microsoft Entra ID directory sync

Choose one or more Entra groups and sync their members into People. AssetCenter keeps identity details and profile photos current, links matching records by email, lets you review newcomers before they are added and marks people inactive when they leave every selected group.

  • Automatic sync every ten minutes
  • Multiple Entra groups without duplicate People
  • Existing People matched by email
  • New people added automatically, or held for review
  • Inactive status instead of record deletion
  • Last-sync status and connection alerts

A controlled connection

Choose who belongs in the asset workflow

You decide which groups are in scope. That keeps AssetCenter focused on the people who receive equipment, subscriptions or location assignments instead of copying the entire tenant by default.

One-way directory sync

Changes flow from Microsoft Entra into AssetCenter People. AssetCenter does not edit users or groups in your Microsoft directory.

  1. 1

    Connect with administrator consent

    An AssetCenter account administrator starts the connection from the Integrations page, then a Microsoft administrator grants read access to directory users and group membership.

  2. 2

    Select the groups that matter

    Search Entra by group name and add one or more groups. Members shared by several selected groups still become one Person.

  3. 3

    Decide how new people arrive

    Add new people automatically is on from the start, so new group members become People on the next sync. Turn it off and they wait in the Inbox instead, for you to add, link to someone you already have, or exclude.

  4. 4

    Let the directory stay authoritative

    Sync immediately or let the ten-minute schedule run. Names, contact details, work information, status and photos stay aligned.

The Entra ID inbox

See every member, and decide who becomes a Person

The Inbox on the Integrations page lists your directory members by what has happened to them, so nobody arrives in People unnoticed and nobody is added twice.

Waiting
Group members who are not in People yet. Add them, link each to a person you created before connecting Entra, or exclude them. Import all takes everyone at once.
Linked
The People that Entra keeps up to date. Leavers marked inactive are hidden until you ask to see them.
Excluded
Members you never want in People. They stay out through every future sync until you put them back.

People stay useful

Directory details meet assignment history

The directory keeps identity details current. AssetCenter keeps the operational record around them: what each person has now, what they had before and the value and subscriptions attached to their work.

Current identity

Name, email, phone, title, department, company, guest status and profile photo can follow Entra.

History stays intact

Leaving a selected group marks a synced Person inactive instead of deleting assignments or past activity.

Existing records connect

A matching email links a Person you already created, then future changes follow the stable Entra identity.

People are not login accounts. Syncing someone from Entra makes them available for asset, subscription and location assignments; it does not invite them to use AssetCenter.

Identity offboarding is already automated at most organizations; equipment recovery usually is not. Why offboarding automation stops at identity.
