Tutorial: Configure TAP App Security for automatic user provisioning

  • บทความ

This tutorial describes the steps you need to perform in both TAP App Security and Microsoft Entra ID to configure automatic user provisioning. When configured, Microsoft Entra ID automatically provisions and de-provisions users and groups to TAP App Security using the Microsoft Entra provisioning service. For important details on what this service does, how it works, and frequently asked questions, see Automate user provisioning and deprovisioning to SaaS applications with Microsoft Entra ID.

Capabilities supported

  • Create users in TAP App Security.
  • Remove users in TAP App Security when they do not require access anymore.
  • Keep user attributes synchronized between Microsoft Entra ID and TAP App Security.
  • Single sign-on to TAP App Security.

Prerequisites

The scenario outlined in this tutorial assumes that you already have the following prerequisites:

Step 1: Plan your provisioning deployment

  1. Learn about how the provisioning service works.
  2. Determine who will be in scope for provisioning.
  3. Determine what data to map between Microsoft Entra ID and TAP App Security.

Step 2: Configure TAP App Security to support provisioning with Microsoft Entra ID

  1. Log in to TAP App Security back-end control panel.
  2. Navigate to Single Sign On > Active Directory.
  3. Click on the Integrate Active Directory app button. Then enter the domain of your organization and click Save button. Screenshot on how to add domain.
  4. After entering the domain, a new line in the table appears showing domain name and its status as initialize. Click on the gear icon to reveal technical data about TAP app Security server and to complete initialization. Screenshot showing initialize.
  5. Technical data about TAP App Security servers is revealed.You can now copy the Tenant Url and Authorization Token from this page to be used later on while setting up provisioning in Microsoft Entra ID. Screenshot showing domain details.

Add TAP App Security from the Microsoft Entra application gallery to start managing provisioning to TAP App Security. If you have previously setup TAP App Security for SSO, you can use the same application. However it is recommended that you create a separate app when testing out the integration initially. Learn more about adding an application from the gallery here.

Step 4: Define who will be in scope for provisioning

The Microsoft Entra provisioning service allows you to scope who will be provisioned based on assignment to the application and or based on attributes of the user / group. If you choose to scope who will be provisioned to your app based on assignment, you can use the following steps to assign users and groups to the application. If you choose to scope who will be provisioned based solely on attributes of the user or group, you can use a scoping filter as described here.

  • Start small. Test with a small set of users and groups before rolling out to everyone. When scope for provisioning is set to assigned users and groups, you can control this by assigning one or two users or groups to the app. When scope is set to all users and groups, you can specify an attribute based scoping filter.

  • If you need additional roles, you can update the application manifest to add new roles.

Step 5: Configure automatic user provisioning to TAP App Security

This section guides you through the steps to configure the Microsoft Entra provisioning service to create, update, and disable users and/or groups in TAP App Security based on user and/or group assignments in Microsoft Entra ID.

To configure automatic user provisioning for TAP App Security in Microsoft Entra ID:

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.

  2. Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications

    Enterprise applications blade

  3. In the applications list, select TAP App Security.

  4. Select the Provisioning tab.

  5. Set the Provisioning Mode to Automatic.

  6. Under the Admin Credentials section, input your TAP App Security Tenant URL and Secret Token. Click Test Connection to ensure Microsoft Entra ID can connect to TAP App Security. If the connection fails, ensure your TAP App Security account has Admin permissions and try again.

  7. In the Notification Email field, enter the email address of a person or group who should receive the provisioning error notifications and select the Send an email notification when a failure occurs check box.

    Notification Email

  8. Select Save.

  9. Under the Mappings section, select Synchronize Microsoft Entra users to TAP App Security.

  10. Review the user attributes that are synchronized from Microsoft Entra ID to TAP App Security in the Attribute-Mapping section. The attributes selected as Matching properties are used to match the user accounts in TAP App Security for update operations. If you choose to change the matching target attribute, you will need to ensure that the TAP App Security API supports filtering users based on that attribute. Select the Save button to commit any changes.

    Attribute Type Supported for filtering Required by TAP App Security
    userName String ✓ ✓
    active Boolean ✓
    phoneNumbers[type eq "mobile"].value String
    displayName String ✓
    title String ✓

  11. To configure scoping filters, refer to the following instructions provided in the Scoping filter tutorial.

  12. To enable the Microsoft Entra provisioning service for TAP App Security, change the Provisioning Status to On in the Settings section.

    Provisioning Status Toggled On

  13. Define the users and/or groups that you would like to provision to TAP App Security by choosing the desired values in Scope in the Settings section.

    Provisioning Scope

  14. When you are ready to provision, click Save.

    Saving Provisioning Configuration

This operation starts the initial synchronization cycle of all users and groups defined in Scope in the Settings section. The initial cycle takes longer to perform than subsequent cycles, which occur approximately every 40 minutes as long as the Microsoft Entra provisioning service is running.

Step 6: Monitor your deployment

Once you've configured provisioning, use the following resources to monitor your deployment:

  • Use the provisioning logs to determine which users have been provisioned successfully or unsuccessfully
  • Check the progress bar to see the status of the provisioning cycle and how close it is to completion
  • If the provisioning configuration seems to be in an unhealthy state, the application will go into quarantine. Learn more about quarantine states here.
