Service Plan Management (Managing Licenses)

The Azure Active Directory connector supports assigning different Azure services licenses to the users. The connector provides options to assign license either by individual plan or as a whole license pack.

  • Assigning license plan: Office 365 license pack consist of licenses for individual services. For example, Exchange Online or SharePoint Online.

  • The connector models the assignedPlans attribute from account schema as an entitlement. It can be requested as an entitlement during Create or Update operations for Identities.

  • Assigning license pack: To assign license pack, set the assignedLicenses attribute from account schema as Managed, Entitlement, or Multi-Valued, so that it is requestable as an entitlement.

Note

  • It is recommended that assignedPlans or assignedLicenses must be promoted as an entitlement to avoid conflicts.

  • To provision the licenses or plans to user, set the user’s usageLocation property correctly.

Service Plan now has separate group schema attributes. For a detailed list of the attributes, see Service Plan.

The following operations are supported for the Service Plan object type:

  • Aggregation

  • View details of Service Plan (like object properties, members and so on)

  • Assign and Revoke access request for Service Plan (entitlement attribute - assignedPlans or assignedLicenses)
