In order for AAD to work, you need to make sure that the following requirements are met.

1:

Access to your AAD Azure Account

Access https://portal.azure.com and loginlog in.

If you're able to see "Azure Active Directory" - you meet this requirement

NOTE: Azure Active Directory Group membership syncronization synchronization to DC requires Azure Subscription levels "Premium P1" or "Premium P2"

2:

The ID of

a

the user

of which

you want all

your

new users to

look like

inherit from (AAD Template User)

Per default the DAM Center is configured with two users, that are "copied" every time either a collection or self-signup user has been created by the system. These two are just users, just like any all the other users (the user named system excluded). The thing that sets them apart is that their passwords usually is something that's meant never to be written again, and that their member ID's have been set to be user IDs are called upon by the system every time a new user is to be created in its likeness.

Usually the self-signup template user named "self-sign up template user" has been set up correctly if you already is already present in your system when you have the self-signup functionality enabled in your Media Manager. If this is the case, usually this user can be used for automatic assigning of roles when creating AAD users. Remember Write down this user's user ID then (usually this is something like "300xx") for later in the guide.

Info

If the group sync feature is used, the templateUserId is optional, and can be set to 0, as group membership is assigned from AAD Group membershipof course a bit redundant. You can simply disable it by setting it to 0 - or choose to keep it on as an addition to all newly created SSO users. The reason why it’s now redundant, is that now users' groups are determined by which groups they’ve been assigned to in the AAD.

If you don't want to use the previously mentioned self-sign up template user, you'll, of course, have to create a new user. You do this by doing the following steps::

Login to your DAM Center with a Super Administrator or an Administrator user
Go to System tools → Users and groups → Users → System users and press Add
In the Username field, you type in "AAD Template User", in the password field you type in something random , and in the (Optionally: Metagroup field "User Config" and press create)
Press create (image below)
Now make a note about your new user's user IDNote down this new user’s user ID (image below)
Now edit Edit the user's roles by expanding the right-side Edit edit menu - and then make sure that you're in the view named "Standard" now add the following groups
1. Internal access
2. Light user or Content Creator
3. Public access
4. Trusted (usually , already added by default)
Press saveSave

The ID you've noted down will be used in a upcoming section, where you have to edit some XML.

3: Create Groups in Dam Center that reflects

Create and map DAM Center groups to reflect your reflects Azure Active Directory Groups

You register your product by doing the following steps:
