Add User Account (Cloud Users – Microsoft 365 Federated)

Purpose

This guide shows how you can create a user account in Practice Protect when Microsoft 365 provisioning is enabled. After adding the user in Practice Protect, a sync will occur and create the user’s account in Microsoft 365 as well. Take note that by default, Practice Protect does not provision licensing, this will need to be assigned from the Microsoft 365 portal.

Below are the list of function/attribute mapped in Practice Protect. The rest are controlled in Microsoft 365.

• Microsoft 365 Account Creation
