AskCody + Microsoft Entra ID integration

Easy directory and SSO management with Microsoft Entra ID and AskCody.

To get the most out of AskCody’s features, you’ll need to populate the employee directory. AskCody makes it simple to integrate with Microsoft Microsoft Entra ID; Microsoft’s cloud-based identity and access management service, which helps your employees’ sign in and access resources in one location. The AskCody + Microsoft Entra ID integration synchronizes your corporate directory with AskCody, and allows you to manage users in a simple, scalable way, leveraging the user groups, security groups, or organizational units you already have in place.

AskCody supports a comprehensive, granular, role-based provisioning of user rights, which is easy to use in Microsoft Microsoft Entra ID. Note that the AskCody + Microsoft Microsoft Entra ID integration supports both directory management and SSO, and is set up by Modern Authentication, OAuth 2.0.

Setting up the AskCody + Microsoft Microsoft Entra ID means you can easily deploy AskCody across your entire organization, no matter the number of employees or offices. And since all updates to your Microsoft Entra ID setup are synchronized with AskCody, you’ll automatically onboard and offboard employees as your team grows and changes, since changes are reflected immediately.
