Setting up Active Directory in Azure

Connect to Microsoft Azure Portal at https://portal.azure.com

Select Azure Active Directory.

Select App registrations > New Registration.

You will now see options to Register an Application. Select the relevant choices, assign a name (e.g. WebMap 9) and click Register.

The next screen displays details of the successfully registered application.

Token Configuration

Access tokens can be used in Azure Active Directory to identify all granted permissions to WebMap.

The token configuration is different depending on how the groups have been created and will be used.

1. Groups which are created by an on-premise Active Directory instance and synchronised or migrated to Azure Active Directory must use the sAMMAccounName type.

Select “Token configuration” and click + Add group claim.

Enable all 4 options (Security groups, Directory roles, All groups and Groups assigned.)

Click Add

2. Groups which are created and used within the Azure Active Directory environment must use the Group ID type.

Enable all 4 options (Security groups, Directory roles, All groups and Groups assigned.)
