Configure provisioning using Microsoft Graph APIs

The Microsoft Entra admin center is a convenient way to configure provisioning for individual apps one at a time. But if you're creating several—or even hundreds—of instances of an application, or migrating application configuration from one environment to another, it can be easier to automate app creation and configuration with the Microsoft Graph APIs. This article outlines how to automate provisioning configuration through APIs. This method is commonly used for applications like Amazon Web Services.

This article illustrates the process with APIs in the Microsoft Graph beta endpoint and Microsoft Graph Explorer; similar APIs are also available in the Microsoft Graph v1.0 endpoint. For an example of configuring provisioning with Graph v1.0 and PowerShell, see steps 6-13 of Configure cross-tenant synchronization using PowerShell or Microsoft Graph API.

Overview of steps for using Microsoft Graph APIs to automate provisioning configuration

Step Details
Step 1. Create the gallery application Sign-in to the API client
Retrieve the gallery application template
Create the gallery application
Step 2. Create provisioning job based on template Retrieve the template for the provisioning connector
Create the provisioning job
Step 3. Authorize access Test the connection to the application
Save the credentials
Step 4. Start provisioning job Start the job
Step 5. Monitor provisioning Check the status of the provisioning job
Retrieve the provisioning logs

If you are provisioning to an on-premises application, then you will also need to install and configure the provisioning agent, and assign the provisioning agent to the application.

  1. Start Microsoft Graph Explorer.
  2. Select the "Sign-In with Microsoft" button and sign in with a user with the Application Administrator role.
  3. Upon successful sign-in, you'll see the user account details in the left-hand pane.

Applications in the Microsoft Entra application gallery each have an application template that describes the metadata for that application. Using this template, you can create an instance of the application and service principal in your tenant for management. Retrieve the identifier of the application template for AWS Single-Account Access and from the response, record the value of the id property to use later in this tutorial.

             "saml",
             "external"
         ],
         "supportedProvisioningTypes": [

}

Use the template ID retrieved for your application in the last step to create an instance of the application and service principal in your tenant.

}

Response

            "WindowsAzureActiveDirectoryIntegratedApp"
        ],
    }
}

Step 2: Create the provisioning job based on the template

Retrieve the template for the provisioning connector

Applications in the gallery that are enabled for provisioning have templates to streamline configuration. Use the request below to retrieve the template for the provisioning configuration. Note that you will need to provide the ID. The ID is that of the servicePrincipal resource, created in the preceding step.

Request

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/servicePrincipals/{id}/synchronization/templates

Response

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

{
    "value": [
        {
            "id": "aws",
            "factoryTag": "aws",
            "schema": {
                    "directories": [],
                    "synchronizationRules": []
                    }
        }
    ]
}

Create the provisioning job

To enable provisioning, you'll first need to create a job. Use the following request to create a provisioning job. Use the templateId from the previous step when specifying the template to be used for the job.

Request

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/servicePrincipals/{id}/synchronization/jobs
Content-type: application/json

{ 
    "templateId": "aws"
}

Response

HTTP/1.1 201 OK
Content-type: application/json

{
    "id": "{jobId}",
    "templateId": "aws",
    "schedule": {
        "expiration": null,
        "interval": "P10675199DT2H48M5.4775807S",
        "state": "Disabled"
    },
    "status": {
        "countSuccessiveCompleteFailures": 0,
        "escrowsPruned": false,
        "synchronizedEntryCountByType": [],
        "code": "NotConfigured",
        "lastExecution": null,
        "lastSuccessfulExecution": null,
        "lastSuccessfulExecutionWithExports": null,
        "steadyStateFirstAchievedTime": "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z",
        "steadyStateLastAchievedTime": "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z",
        "quarantine": null,
        "troubleshootingUrl": null
    }
}

Step 3: Authorize access

Test the connection to the application

Test the connection with the third-party application. The following example is for an application that requires a client secret and secret token. Each application has its own requirements. Applications often use a base address in place of a client secret. To determine what credentials your app requires, go to the provisioning configuration page for your application, and in developer mode, click test connection. The network traffic will show the parameters used for credentials. For a full list of credentials, see synchronizationJob: validateCredentials. Most applications, such as Azure Databricks, rely on a BaseAddress and SecretToken. The BaseAddress is referred to as a tenant URL in the Microsoft Entra admin center.

Request

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/servicePrincipals/{id}/synchronization/jobs/{jobId}/validateCredentials

{ 
    "credentials": [ 
        { 
            "key": "ClientSecret", "value": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" 
        },
        {
            "key": "SecretToken", "value": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
        }
    ]
}

Response

HTTP/1.1 204 No Content

Save your credentials

Configuring provisioning requires establishing a trust between Microsoft Entra ID and the application to authorize Microsoft Entra to have the ability to call the third-party application. The following example is specific to an application that requires a client secret and a secret token. Each application has its own requirements. Review the API documentation to see the available options.

Request

PUT https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/servicePrincipals/{id}/synchronization/secrets 

{ 
    "value": [ 
        { 
            "key": "ClientSecret", "value": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
        },
        {
            "key": "SecretToken", "value": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
        }
    ]
}

Response

HTTP/1.1 204 No Content

Step 4: Start the provisioning job

Now that the provisioning job is configured, use the following command to start the job.

Request

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/servicePrincipals/{id}/synchronization/jobs/{jobId}/start

Response

HTTP/1.1 204 No Content

Step 5: Monitor provisioning

Monitor the provisioning job status

Now that the provisioning job is running, use the following command to track the progress. Each synchronization job in the response includes the status of the current provisioning cycle as well as statistics to date such as the number of users and groups that have been created in the target system.

Request

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/servicePrincipals/{id}/synchronization/jobs

Response

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-type: application/json

{ "value": [
{
    "id": "{jobId}",
    "templateId": "aws",
    "schedule": {
        "expiration": null,
        "interval": "P10675199DT2H48M5.4775807S",
        "state": "Disabled"
    },
    "status": {
        "countSuccessiveCompleteFailures": 0,
        "escrowsPruned": false,
        "synchronizedEntryCountByType": [],
        "code": "Paused",
        "lastExecution": null,
        "lastSuccessfulExecution": null,
        "progress": [],
        "lastSuccessfulExecutionWithExports": null,
        "steadyStateFirstAchievedTime": "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z",
        "steadyStateLastAchievedTime": "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z",
        "quarantine": null,
        "troubleshootingUrl": null
    },
    "synchronizationJobSettings": [
      {
          "name": "QuarantineTooManyDeletesThreshold",
          "value": "500"
      }
    ]
}
]
}

Monitor provisioning events using the provisioning logs

In addition to monitoring the status of the provisioning job, you can use the provisioning logs to query for all the events that are occurring. For example, query for a particular user and determine if they were successfully provisioned.

Request

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/auditLogs/provisioning

Response
