Active Directory Integration

With our commitment to improve single sign on experiences across our products, we have now introduced support for Microsoft Azure AD.

Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) is Microsoft’s multi-tenant cloud based directory and identity management service.

For IT Admins, Azure AD provides an affordable, easy to use solution to give employees and business partners single sign-on (SSO) access to thousands of cloud SaaS Applications like Eclipse.NET and Junior Librarian.

Azure AD also includes a full suite of identity management capabilities including multi-factor authentication, device registration, self-service password management, self-service group management, privileged account management, role based access control, application usage monitoring, rich auditing and security monitoring and alerting. These capabilities can help secure cloud based applications, streamline IT processes, cut costs and help ensure that corporate compliance goals are met.

Additionally, with just four clicks, Azure AD can be integrated with an existing Windows Server Active Directory, giving organisations the ability to leverage their existing on-premises identity investments to manage access to cloud based SaaS applications.

This is an exciting addition to our product(s). For more information, please read the attached PDF to see how easy it is to configure Azure to work with MLS products.

The settings in your LMS are in the following location:

Settings -> Directory Services -> Azure AD.

You need to also specify your local custom domain in the settings.
