You can connect Omni to Microsoft Entra to manage authentication and user access through your organization’s existing identity provider. Entra supports SAML for single sign-on and SCIM for automated user provisioning. You can also sync additional user attributes like name, title, or department to keep Omni profiles up to date.Documentation Index

Integration overview
Connecting Entra to Omni allows you to:- Authenticate users through Entra using SAML.
- Control when and how users are provisioned in Omni.
- Sync user profile data such as display name and department through attribute mappings.
User provisioning options
Omni supports two approaches for provisioning users:| Option | How it works | When to use |
|---|---|---|
| SCIM provisioning | Users are created in Omni when assigned to the Omni app in Entra. | You want users provisioned immediately upon assignment, regardless of whether they’ve logged in. |
| First-login provisioning | Users are created in Omni only when they first log in via SAML. | You want to control seat usage by provisioning users only when they actually access Omni. |
Getting started
Follow these steps to get set up. You can complete SAML only, or add SCIM and attribute sync for a fully automated experience.| Step | Description | Link |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Set up SAML SSO to let users sign in to Omni with their Entra credentials. | SAML setup → |
| 2 | Enable SCIM provisioning to automatically create, update, and deactivate users in Omni. | SCIM setup → |
| 3 | Sync user attributes like name, title, and department between Entra and Omni. | Sync attributes → |
Notes and troubleshooting
- Admin access required: You’ll need Entra admin permissions to configure SAML and SCIM.
- Test before rollout: Try SSO with a test user before enabling it organization-wide.
- Sync frequency: SCIM updates usually occur within a few minutes of changes in Entra.
