Assign Users and Groups to the SSO Application

In order to allow users to connect to Elqano via the Azure AD SSO, you will have to assign Users or Groups to the application.

To do so, navigate to the newly created “Enterprise Application” and select the Users and Groups section on the left.

In that section, you will have to assign Users and Groups to give them the ability to connect to Elqano.

Note: To grant user or group access to the admin features, you will need to select the Admin role when assigning it to the app.

Once you have created the app roles, you can assign them by returning to the already created Entreprise Application.

Navigate to the Elqano SSO entreprise application and go to the users and groups section.

IMPORTANT: Azure AD does not support nested group permissions for external applications. It meams that if you assign a group to the application, only direct members of this group will have access to Elqano, not the members of another group assigned to a first one.
