Choosing Your Azure Active Directory Scopes

Azure Active Directory discoveries, by default, target the tenant that you specified with the credentials on the Name page in Step 1. Create the Discovery . You can edit the name of the Azure Active Directory tenant if it is different from the credentials specified. Information about your contacts, users, groups, group members, roles, and application service principals is collected based on the discovery options.

Azure AD Discovery: Configuring Enterprise Reporter Applications for Azure

You must register the applications used by Enterprise Reporter in your Azure environment. You can complete this process using the System | Configuration | Tenant Application Management option in the main menu before you create discoveries.

If the Enterprise Reporter Azure application has not yet been registered in your Azure environment, the Azure Active Directory Scopes page of the discovery will display a warning message above the Azure Tenant name at the top of the screen. If you have already configured the required tenant application and it indicates the option to Reconfigure, nothing further is necessary.


	IMPORTANT: If changes are made to Azure applications outside of Enterprise Reporter (for example, the removal of permissions or the deletion of applications), Enterprise Reporter will not receive these updates. Please use the Reconfigure link next to an application to re-create the application and consent to application permissions again. For more information, see To reconfigure application for a tenant .

To open the Tenant Application Manager from an Azure discovery

1

On the Azure discovery Scopes page, click Configure next to the tenant name to open the Tenant Application Manager.

Click Delete.

3

Click Yes to confirm that discoveries for any tenant that you delete will be unable to collect data

The tenant and the Enterprise Reporter applications for this tenant are removed.

To edit administrator credentials for the tenant application

Open the Tenant Application Manager. For more information, see To open the Tenant Application Manager .

2

Click Configure or Reconfigure next to the application.

3

Complete the Microsoft wizard that guides you through registering the application and consenting to application permissions using credentials with administrative access to create Enterprise Reporter applications on the tenant.

If multi-factor authentication has been configured for this account, you will be prompted to complete the verification steps to complete the authentication process.

Once the consent is complete, the Tenant Application Manager will display a Reconfigure link next to the application.

Azure AD Discovery: Decide what to collect from the tenant in the discovery

You can collect a variety of information from the Office 365 tenant in your discovery. Basic information from the tenant (the tenant name and full LDAP path), subscriptions, licenses, and service plans is always collected.

The following table outlines the additional information that can be collected. Collecting additional information impacts discovery performance. Options with a high performance cost will slow discovery performance more than options with a medium or low performance cost.

Table 29. Azure Active Directory Discovery: Optionally collect information for the following objects

Performance Cost

Collects basic information for all user accounts.

•

Additional attributes from Office 365

If collecting users, you can enable this option to collect additional attributes such as AboutMe, Birthday, HireDate, Interests, MySite, PastProjects, PreferredName, Responsibilities, Schools, and Skills.
