Acall supports user and group provisioning for Microsoft Entra ID.

This page describes how to set up to use group provisioning.

⚠️ 
If you want to use group provisioning, please set up the "[Entra ID] SSO / Provisioning Common Settings" and "[Entra ID] Provisioning Settings" before start the settings on this page.

 

 

Delete existing groups on Acall

It is not possible to sync existing groups on Acall with groups in Entra ID.

If you have already manually created groups on Acall that you want to sync through provisioning, please delete the existing Acall groups before provisioning the group to avoid double registration.

Please refer to "Can I sync existing Acall groups with IdP groups?" for more information.

 

 

Set up Group Provisioning

Assign Groups To Acall App

Assign groups that need to be enabled for Provisioning and SSO to Acall app.

💡 
If you have Microsoft Entra ID P1 or P2 license, Group-based assignment to Acall app is available.
However, application assignment using group hierarchic structure is not supported. 
If you want to synchronize groups that are hierarchically structured on the IdP to Acall, please be sure to read "Can I synchronize the hierarchical structure of groups on the IdP?".
