Just to give a background. We added workday as an data source for users using applications in azure portal and configured to create one user using 'on demand'. User was created successfully but also it created all the 15K users which was in workday. We are trying to rollback so that it creates only users who are qualified from scoping criteria which is set as first name=test. Trying to find a article on this but couldn't find it. Please advise.

    Hi @Rudraradhya, Naveen-Kumar , I can provide this high-level overview of the steps you'll need to take for this. Let me know if it works for you or if you have any questions.

    1. Remove the Workday provisioning connector from Azure AD. This will stop the provisioning of new users from Workday to Azure AD.
    2. Delete the users that were created in Azure AD and on-premises AD as a result of the provisioning. You can use PowerShell scripts to delete the users in bulk.
    3. Modify the scoping filter in the Workday provisioning configuration to include only the users who meet the criteria you have set (in this case, first name=test).
    4. Re-add the Workday provisioning connector to Azure AD and start the provisioning process again. This time, only the users who meet the scoping criteria will be provisioned.

    Make sure to take a backup of your data before making any changes.
