Hi Team

I have a requirement to integrate Azure AD with ServiceNow for SSO and Automatic User provisioning, as per the Microsoft article, the integration ID should have admin role, this is not safe to provide admin role, could you please let me know how this can be done without admin role to create/update user record from Azure AD

When I just tried with soap roles with ACL added to sys_user table, Azure throws error: Insufficient privilege to create user record

Error code

ServiceNowInsufficientRights

Error message

com.glide.processors.soap.SOAPProcessingException: Insufficient rights for creating new records

Hi @Magesh Babu ,

It's the "Admin" role only!!

I understand from where you are coming from on this is not safe to provide admin role but ideally, all the organizations has a dedicated team who is responsible for User provisioning and they do have Admin role and so by that you will know who is responsible for anything which goes wrong.

Mark my answer correct & Helpful, if Applicable.

Thanks,

Sandeep

@Sandeep Dutta Thanks Sandeep for the prompt response.

The article that I shared is from Microsoft, is there any article from ServiceNow that tell that admin role is required for Azure AD to SN User provisioning?

Hi Magesh,

Description

Microsoft now offers Microsoft Azure integration to ServiceNow. However, although it is not a ServiceNow product, assistance on the integration sometimes is required.

Yes it is from Microsoft, I am looking for NOW support to get a solution to avoid giving admin role.
