Go to Signitic

Connect Microsoft 365

Installation guide for Microsoft 365

warning icon
To connect your Office 365 directory to Signitic, you must have an Azure Active Directory administrator account.

1️⃣ Connect Microsoft 365 and Signitic

Go to the Connectors tab in your administration interface.

Choose Microsoft 365 then Connect, to be redirected to the page for accepting the various permissions.

The requested permissions are used to retrieve the list of your users and their attributes.

Once the various permissions are granted, you are redirected to your new connector.

In practical terms, this means that daily Signitic will apply your additions, modifications, or deletions of users on the platform.


2️⃣ Settings

Data Overwriting

Overwriting allows updating all user fields from Microsoft 365 daily.

More specifically: do you want or not that when an attribute is updated on a user, this attribute overwrites the attribute present on Signitic?

New Active Users by Default

Set the default status when new users are loaded from Microsoft 365.

Loading profile photos from the directory

By default, Signitic does not retrieve photos from the Microsoft 365 directory to optimize retrieval time. If you wish to retrieve them, you can enable this option.


3️⃣ Filters

Email aliases

Load your users' email aliases on Signitic. Each alias is considered a new user and can therefore have a different signature than the primary email.

Shared mailboxes

Load shared mailboxes (mailboxes without Office 365 licenses) on Signitic. Each shared mailbox is considered a new user and can therefore have a signature.

Groups

Filter the import of your users by Office 365 group: only users belonging to the selected groups will be added to your user list in Signitic.


4️⃣ Organization mapping

In the choice list, you have 3 fields available to automatically create your organization:

⚠️ PS: It is important to understand that we retrieve attributes from user profiles and not from group assignments from 365.

Level 1 Group

The user will be placed in the entity that corresponds to the value of the field in your directory. If the group does not exist, it will be automatically created. If the Group field is not used in the mapping, the user will be placed in the main group of the entity.

Level 2 Group

Same as the Level 1 Group field but to build an organization on 2 group levels. Example: your different brands.

Level 3 Group

The user will be placed in the group that corresponds to the value of the field in your directory. If the group does not exist, it will be automatically created.

User Attributes

Here, you have the option to choose where each Signitic field comes from for the data of your users.

In the left column, you have the list of the destination field on the Signitic side and on the right the option to choose the field from your Microsoft directory.

These settings are used when adding a new user in Signitic but also for the daily update if the data rewrite option is enabled on the connector.
