Entra ID

Hoe richt je access reviews in voor groepslidmaatschap?
Hoe geef je toegang tot applicaties via groepen in Entra ID?
Applicatietoegang via groepen regel je in Entra ID door de app als enterprise application te registreren, onder Properties de optie "Assignment required" op Yes te zetten, en vervolgens onder Users and groups je toegangsgroep toe te wijzen, eventueel gekoppeld aan een app role. Vanaf dat moment bepaalt het groepslidmaatschap wie de app ziet en kan gebruiken. De valkuil: alleen directe leden tellen; een geneste groep binnen je toegangsgroep krijgt níéts. Wie dit goed inricht, heeft per applicatie één plek waar toegang geregeld is. Wie het overslaat, heeft apps die voor de hele organisatie openstaan zonder dat iemand dat ooit zo besloten heeft.

How do you create dynamic groups based on HR attributes?
A dynamic group in Entra ID populates itself based on a rule regarding user attributes, for example, everyone with department Finance or jobTitle Team Leader. You create it via Entra ID → Groups → New group, choose membership type Dynamic User, and build the rule in the rule builder. The group only works as well as the HR attributes it runs on: if department and job title are not reliably stored in Entra, even the best rule will not work. The latter is the real work in practice. Building the rule takes five minutes; ensuring that department, jobTitle, and employeeType are populated and up to date for every Employee is an ongoing process. This article covers both sides.

What is the difference between security groups and Microsoft 365 groups?
A security group manages access: you link applications, licences, permissions, and policies to it. A Microsoft 365 group manages collaboration: upon creation, the group automatically receives a shared mailbox, a SharePoint site, a Planner, and optionally a team in Microsoft Teams. The rule of thumb is simple: if it is about who has access, choose a security group. If it is about working together in a shared environment, choose a Microsoft 365 group. In practice, this often goes wrong because both types are created in the same screen and appear identical at first glance. Choosing the incorrect type requires exporting, rebuilding, and linking once again later, as converting between the two types is not possible.

How do you set up Entra ID groups for role access?
You set up role access in Entra ID by creating a security group for each job title or role that carries the access: applications, licences and data are linked to the group, never to the individual. You then populate the group automatically based on HR attributes such as department and job title, using dynamic membership rules or through provisioning from your HR system. In this article, you will read how to design the model, what choices to make and how to set it up step by step.
