This guide connects Microsoft Entra ID to Reelevant, so Entra ID creates, updates, and deactivates Reelevant accounts for you. Read Automatic User Provisioning first — it explains the settings you choose here.

Before You Begin

  • Turn provisioning on in Reelevant, then copy the base address and generate an access key.
  • You need administrator rights in Microsoft Entra ID.
  • Create in Reelevant the roles you want provisioned people to receive.

Step 1 — Create The Application

1

Add an enterprise application

In the Microsoft Entra admin centre, go to Enterprise applications and click New application.
2

Create your own application

Choose Create your own application, name it “Reelevant”, and pick the option for an application not in the gallery.
3

Assign people and groups

Open Users and groups and assign the people or groups who should have a Reelevant account.
Only people assigned to this application are provisioned. Logging in is handled by single sign-on, which is configured separately.

Step 2 — Connect Provisioning

1

Open Provisioning

In the application, open Provisioning, click Get started, and set the mode to Automatic.
2

Paste the Reelevant values

3

Test the connection

Click Test Connection. Entra ID checks what Reelevant supports and confirms the credentials.If the test fails, check that provisioning is switched on in Reelevant and that the access key has not been revoked.
4

Save and start

Click Save, then set Provisioning Status to On. Entra ID synchronises roughly every 40 minutes.

Step 3 — Map The Attributes

Open Mappings → Provision Microsoft Entra ID Users. Keep these mappings and delete the rest — extra attributes are ignored.
Keep userName as the matching attribute. If the email address and the user name disagree, the user name wins.

Step 4 — Synchronise Groups

Only do this if you kept group synchronisation on in Reelevant.
1

Enable the group mapping

In Mappings, open Provision Microsoft Entra ID Groups and make sure it is enabled.
2

Assign the groups to the application

Back in Users and groups, assign the groups that should become Reelevant Teams.
3

Let the synchronisation run

Each assigned group creates a Team of the same name, and its members join that Team.
If you chose from groups to decide roles, use here exactly the group names you listed in the Reelevant role mapping. Names are compared ignoring upper and lower case.

Step 5 — Test With One Person

1

Provision on demand

Use Provision on demand and pick one test person, so you do not have to wait for the next cycle.
2

Check the account in Reelevant

Open the Users page. The account appears with the expected role and Teams.The person has no password: they log in through single sign-on. No invitation email is sent.
3

Disable the test person

Disable the account in Entra ID, or remove their assignment to the application.
4

Check the result

In Reelevant, the account is now deactivated or deleted, following the choice you made in the provisioning settings.Open sessions are closed immediately, so the person loses access straight away.
5

Read the audit log

The audit log shows each of these events, with the exact time and outcome.
