Q: How do I assign user groups and users to the new application?

A: Entra ID utilizes the DisplayName property for each group when matching groups. When matching groups:

  • The group must already exist in Resolver

  • The group's DisplayName in Entra must match the group name in Resolver

    • The DisplayName of the group in Resolver is by default identical to the group name in the system, however these can be updated via the API or after the group has been synced in Entra. Changing the DisplayName does not change the name of the group as it appears in Resolver.
