Integrations with Microsoft Entra ID

Onboarding

From employee change to a complete start.

Service Automation Suite connects IAM to the wider employee workflow. Use a matrix in Service Automation Suite to relate roles to access, assets and tasks, for example. Combine those rules with current HR and TOPdesk data and agree who maintains the matrix. This determines the changes and actions needed.

Lifecycle matrix, form & exceptions

Combine the data with your policy, risk assessments and checks. Request information or a decision where needed, track actions and record the outcome.

Employee, date & current situation

Execute & report back

Activities, accounts, handover & signing

  1. Combine available information

    Use the HR change and current person, access and asset data. Forms or reviews supply missing information and exceptions.

  2. Let the matrix define the route

    Service Automation Suite applies role profiles, conditions and effective dates. Start or update the TOPdesk change with appropriate activities for HR, IT and facilities.

  3. Execute, confirm and update

    Connect account and group actions to asset handover and confirmation. Include ValidSign signing and file storage where needed. Return outcomes to the activities.

  4. Complete the loop with HR

    Once the account is created, write agreed account data or status back to AFAS or the chosen HR source. The TOPdesk activity receives the same outcome. HR and IT no longer need to copy or chase confirmation separately.

IAM & auditability

From access decision to demonstrable execution.

A closed ticket does not explain why access was granted or what actually happened. Connect the IAM decision to approval, TOPdesk activities and outcomes from the systems involved. Support auditability and accountability, including within BIO2.

Person, request, reason & approval

Demonstrate execution

Activities, outcome & follow-up

  1. Record the decision with the request

    Connect the person, reason and required approval to the requested access or assets.

  2. Connect activities to actual outcomes

    Return system actions and manual confirmations to the TOPdesk change and activities. A sent command does not prove successful execution.

  3. Keep exceptions actionable

    Show what was executed, what differs and who must act. This supports controls and reviews; compliance also requires appropriate policies and operations.

Align access

A TOPdesk request. Access follows under control.

Connect an approved request or employee change to accounts, groups and access in Entra ID. Return the outcome or exception to the service ticket.

Update, execute and record outcomes

  1. Connect people and sources

    Choose the authoritative existing record, for example in HR or TOPdesk, and use Service Automation Suite to connect it to the right Microsoft Entra user and groups.

  2. Grant or revoke access

    Service Automation Suite can map approved changes to accounts and group memberships through Microsoft Graph. Security controls remain part of your configuration.

  3. Maintain relationships and outcomes

    Have Service Automation Suite update agreed person and asset relationships, for example in TOPdesk, and return the result or error to the original request.

Employee lifecycle

One employee change. The right next steps.

Connect onboarding, role changes and departures to access, assets and service tasks. HR remains the source; each team receives its own follow-up.

What is complete? Who needs to act? Which exception needs attention?

Start with one integration, register or check. Build on the same data and rules.

Combine into one controlled process

Under the hood

This integration, step by step.
How we configure this example

From an approved HR change to the correct Entra account

  1. Connect and retrieve

    Connect Microsoft Graph through an app registration in the Entra tenant. Separate user-read permissions from permissions to change accounts or group membership.

  2. Find the correct record

    Relate the employee number to the user object ID. Use the UPN to recognise the account but retain the object ID when the sign-in name changes.

  3. Execute the agreed action

    Compare desired groups from your role matrix with current membership. Apply only approved additions or removals; handle account creation, blocking and licences as separate actions.

  4. Verify the outcome

    Read back the user and relevant groups before completing the HR or service task. Keep rejected group changes open with the account reference and failure reason.

Beyond the first integration.

Use the same data and rules in your next process.

Start with one use case. Connect customer, employee and asset data, for example, and agree which source is authoritative. Reuse those relationships, a matrix where needed and configured actions in the next workflow. Agree who maintains the data and rules. Expand without repeatedly connecting and maintaining the same information.

Signature declined. Keep the process moving.

A request awaits a ValidSign signature. Declining, expiry and technical failure each need different handling.

Combine
Link the request, signing request and document. Read the available status and apply agreed conditions to determine the next action.
The outcome determines what follows
Signed: process the document and confirm the activity. Declined: route the reason to the owner. Temporary technical failure: retry only under the configured error rule.
The benefit
Appropriate follow-up for each outcome without counting a sent signing request as completed work.
A replacement laptop without losing context.

An employee receives a replacement device. The old asset, new record and open service or security tickets must remain connected.

Combine
Use the central relationship between owner and device identifiers. Combine handover, technical inventory and return with existing tickets.
The outcome determines what follows
Receipt confirmed: update ownership and relationships. Old device missing or uncertain match: start a targeted review instead of overwriting historical records.
The benefit
Current records and a traceable handover even when a management tool uses different names.
Temporary access, with the end handled too.

Additional access is approved for a limited period. A checkbox alone does not preserve why, for whom and until when.

Combine
Connect identity, approval, expiry date and the available access action. Reuse the same data for a scheduled follow-up check.
The outcome determines what follows
Revocation confirmed: record the result. Extension requested: ask for a new decision. Not revoked: raise the exception with the authorised group rather than silently completing it.
The benefit
Fewer forgotten exceptions and a traceable relationship between approval and actual access.

Your process needs more than a standard action?

Configure the missing API request, input and output in API Composer. Use its response in the next step and combine it with data tables, forms and automations. Extend the same product and reuse the configured building blocks.

Use Service Automation Suite to update a ticket in TOPdesk, for example, with fields available through its API, such as category, priority, status and support group. For another application, configure its request and field mapping. The outcome determines the next action: confirm, add information or request review, not merely check whether the request arrived.

Build it yourself: explore the technical approach

Need to publish data or let others submit it? Endpoint Composer exposes a configured Service Automation Suite data object with selected methods and security profiles. Other building blocks handle subsequent processing.
