Hi,

We would like to sync AD Groups (on premise) to Azure AD. Now, we have AD Connect with Group Filtering enabled.

Ex :
Group Filtering = Group_Filtering (Security Group - Global)
Group to sync = GroupAdToAzure (Security Group - Global)

We added "GroupAdToAzure" as member of "Group_Filtering" to be sure that is synchronized.

We receive an error during the sync. The message is :

Every group requires that the SecurityEnabled attribute have a valid value. This attribute indicates whether the group is a security enabled group. Please set this attribute, and then try again.
Tracking Id: 06b16b21-0b56-4557-a997-94219d21c693
ExtraErrorDetails:

When i check the metaverse, i correctly see that the group contains the "SecurityEnabled = True".

Could you help us ?

Thanks

    Group filtering is not supported in production. Instead of trying to troubleshoot this, I would recommend moving to a supported method of attribute filtering:
