Configure Torii for automatic user provisioning with Microsoft Entra ID

This article describes the steps you need to perform in both Torii and Microsoft Entra ID to configure automatic user provisioning. When configured, Microsoft Entra ID automatically provisions and de-provisions users to Torii using the Microsoft Entra 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.

Supported capabilities

  • Create users in Torii.
  • Remove users in Torii when they don't require access anymore.
  • Keep user attributes synchronized between Microsoft Entra ID and Torii.
  • Single sign-on to Torii (recommended).

Prerequisites

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

Step 1: Plan your provisioning deployment

  1. Learn about how the provisioning service works.
  2. Determine who's in scope for provisioning.
  3. Determine what data to map between Microsoft Entra ID and Torii.

Step 2: Configure Torii to support provisioning with Microsoft Entra ID

  1. Log in to Torii admin console.

  2. Navigate to Settings page > Security, enable the SCIM toggle.

  3. Navigate to the API Access tab. From here, you can view and manage the Torii API keys and SCIM.

  4. Select Generate API Key to generate a new SCIM.

  5. Choose type: SCIM.

  6. Add Description and set Expiration date. For security purposes, we recommend setting an expiration date when generating a new key.

  7. Select Generate key.

  8. Copy and save the API Key as it won't be available next. This value is entered in the Secret Token field in the Provisioning tab of your Torii application.

  9. Select Got it.

  10. Torii Tenant Url: https://api.toriihq.com/v1.0/scim/v2 is entered in the Tenant URL field in the Provisioning tab of your Torii application.

Add Torii from the Microsoft Entra application gallery to start managing provisioning to Torii. If you have previously setup Torii for SSO you can use the same application. However it's recommended that you create a separate app when testing out the integration initially. Learn more about adding an application from the gallery here.

Step 4: Define who is in scope for provisioning

The Microsoft Entra provisioning service allows you to scope who is provisioned based on assignment to the application, or based on attributes of the user or group. If you choose to scope who is provisioned to your app based on assignment, you can use the steps to assign users and groups to the application. If you choose to scope who is provisioned based solely on attributes of the user or group, you can use a scoping filter.

  • Start small. Test with a small set of users and groups before rolling out to everyone. When scope for provisioning is set to assigned users and groups, you can control this by assigning one or two users or groups to the app. When scope is set to all users and groups, you can specify an attribute based scoping filter.

  • If you need extra roles, you can update the application manifest to add new roles.

Step 5: Configure automatic user provisioning to Torii

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

Configure automatic user provisioning for Torii in Microsoft Entra ID

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

  2. Browse to Entra ID > Enterprise apps

  5. Select + New configuration.

    Screenshot of New configuration.

  6. In the Tenant URL field, enter your Torii Tenant URL and Secret Token. Select Test Connection to ensure Microsoft Entra ID can connect to Torii. If the connection fails, ensure your Torii account has the required admin permissions and try again.

  7. Select Create to create your configuration.

  8. Select Properties on the Overview page.

  9. Select the Edit icon to edit the properties. Enable notification emails and provide an email to receive quarantine notifications. Enable Accidental deletions prevention. Select Apply to save the changes.

  10. Select Attribute Mapping in the left panel and select users.

  11. Review the user attributes that are synchronized from Microsoft Entra ID to Torii in the Attribute-Mapping section. The attributes selected as Matching properties are used to match the user accounts in Torii for update operations. If you choose to change the matching target attribute, you need to ensure that the Torii API supports filtering users based on that attribute. Select the Save button to commit any changes.

    Attribute Type Supported for filtering Required by Torii
    userName String
    active Boolean
    name.givenName String
    name.familyName String
    userType String

    Note

    • userName must be a valid email address with a valid domain.
    • userType(role in Torii):
    • It must be exactly as appear at Torii
    • If userType is empty, the user gets the Employee role as the default.
    • The user types(roles) appear here.
    • Only admin users (not from type "Employee") is displayed in Torii's UI
    • Read more about Torii's attributes here.
  12. To configure scoping filters, refer to the instructions provided in the Scoping filter article.

  13. Use on-demand provisioning to validate sync with a small number of users before deploying more broadly in your organization.

  14. When you're ready to provision, select Start Provisioning from the Overview page.

Step 6: Monitor your deployment

Once you configure provisioning, use the following resources to monitor your deployment:

  1. Use the provisioning logs to determine which users are provisioned successfully or unsuccessfully
  2. Check the progress bar to see the status of the provisioning cycle and how close it's to completion
  3. If the provisioning configuration seems to be in an unhealthy state, the application goes into quarantine. Learn more about quarantine states the application provisioning quarantine status article.
