Cross-tenant synchronization is Generally Available

Originally posted by Microsoft Jun 22, 2023 Uncategorized 0 Comments

Cross-tenant synchronization lets you automate creating user accounts across tenants in your organization. Users created by the synchronization process continue to authenticate in the same way they do on their primary tenant and each application can assign conditional access policies as appropriate. So now, users across your organization can access applications such as ServiceNow, Adobe, etc. without integrating them the apps in multiple tenants.

Behind the scenes and transparent to the user, the sync process leverages the robust Azure AD B2B functionality and is fully integrated with Azure AD’s security and governance capabilities such as conditional access, cross-tenant access settings, and entitlement management.
