Configure Reward Gateway for automatic user provisioning with Microsoft Entra ID

The objective of this article is to demonstrate the steps to be performed in Reward Gateway and Microsoft Entra ID to configure Microsoft Entra ID to automatically provision and de-provision users and/or groups to Reward Gateway.

Note

This article describes a connector built on top of the Microsoft Entra user provisioning service. For important details on what this service does, how it works, and frequently asked questions, see Automate user provisioning and deprovisioning to SaaS applications with Microsoft Entra ID.

This connector is currently in public preview. For more information about previews, see Universal License Terms For Online Services.

Prerequisites

The scenario outlined in this article assumes that you already have the following prerequisites:

- A Microsoft Entra user account with an active subscription. If you don't already have one, you can Create an account for free. - One of the following roles: - Application Administrator - Cloud Application Administrator - Application Owner..

Assigning users to Reward Gateway

Microsoft Entra ID uses a concept called assignments to determine which users should receive access to selected apps. In the context of automatic user provisioning, only the users and/or groups that have been assigned to an application in Microsoft Entra ID are synchronized.

Before configuring and enabling automatic user provisioning, you should decide which users and/or groups in Microsoft Entra ID need access to Reward Gateway. Once decided, you can assign these users and/or groups to Reward Gateway by following the instructions in Assign a user or group to an enterprise app.

Important tips for assigning users to Reward Gateway

  • It's recommended that a single Microsoft Entra user is assigned to Reward Gateway to test the automatic user provisioning configuration. Additional users and/or groups may be assigned later.

  • When assigning a user to Reward Gateway, you must select any valid application-specific role (if available) in the assignment dialog. Users with the Default Access role are excluded from provisioning.

Setup Reward Gateway for provisioning

Before configuring Reward Gateway for automatic user provisioning with Microsoft Entra ID, you need to enable SCIM provisioning on Reward Gateway.

  1. Sign in to your Reward Gateway Admin Console. Select Integrations.

To configure Reward Gateway for automatic user provisioning with Microsoft Entra ID, you need to add Reward Gateway from the Microsoft Entra application gallery to your list of managed SaaS applications.

To add Reward Gateway from the Microsoft Entra application gallery, perform the following steps:

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.

  2. Browse to Entra ID > Enterprise apps > New application.

  3. In the Add from the gallery section, type Reward Gateway, select Reward Gateway in the search box.

  4. Select Reward Gateway from results panel and then add the app. Wait a few seconds while the app is added to your tenant.

Configuring automatic user provisioning to Reward Gateway

This section guides you through the steps to configure the Microsoft Entra provisioning service to create, update, and disable users and/or groups in Reward Gateway based on user and/or group assignments in Microsoft Entra ID.

Tip

You may also choose to enable SAML-based single sign-on for Reward Gateway, following the instructions provided in the Reward Gateway Single sign-on article. Single sign-on can be configured independently of automatic user provisioning, though these two features complement each other.
