Configuring Microsoft Entra ID Settings
The Microsoft Entra ID is a different source for managing users, devices, and its attributes, this will help to get the benefits of SaaS based Microsoft Entra ID native features. The Microsoft Entra ID supports adding users and groups to provide access to different capabilities in App Portal via Admin Security, Catalog Security respectively and leverage the Microsoft Entra ID attributes as part of the Visibility Condition and Security Groups features.
Important:To ensure the App Portal capabilities function optimally in this release, it is mandatory to retain or configure Active Directory settings when using Microsoft Entra ID as the primary identity and access management (IAM) solution.
