After you have published the SCIM microservice app to Azure, you need to run the following PowerShell script to assign several required permissions to the App Service managed identity. Required permissions follow the least-privilege principle and include the following:
Graph API / Permissions name | Access Granted by Permissions | Used By |
AuditLog.Read.All | Read audit log data | App Service Managed Identity |
Group.Read.All | Read group data | App Service Managed Identity |
GroupMember.ReadWrite.All | Read and write group memberships | App Service Managed Identity |
User.Read.All | Read user profile | App Service Managed Identity |
Reports.Read.All | Read report data | App Service Managed Identity |
Organization.Read.All | Read organization information | App Service Managed Identity |
The above permissions have been added to the script's PermissionsToAdd parameter, shown below. In addition to adding the permissions, you need to enter values for these parameters:
tenantID — Your Tenant ID
appServiceObjectID — Object ID of the SCIM App Service
When running the script, be sure to authenticate to Azure as a user with adequate permissions to execute it in Azure AD (owner at the tenant level).
