Tutorial: Configure Priority Matrix for automatic user provisioning

The objective of this tutorial is to demonstrate the steps to be performed in Priority Matrix and Microsoft Entra ID to configure Microsoft Entra ID to automatically provision and de-provision users and/or groups to Priority Matrix.

Note

This tutorial describes a connector built on top of the Microsoft Entra user provisioning service. For important details on what this service does, how it works, and frequently asked questions, see Automate user provisioning and deprovisioning to SaaS applications with Microsoft Entra ID.

Prerequisites

The scenario outlined in this tutorial assumes that you already have the following prerequisites:

Note

This integration is also available to use from Microsoft Entra US Government Cloud environment. You can find this application in the Microsoft Entra US Government Cloud Application Gallery and configure it in the same way as you do from public cloud.

Assign users to Priority Matrix

Microsoft Entra ID uses a concept called assignments to determine which users should receive access to selected apps. In the context of automatic user provisioning, only the users and/or groups that have been assigned to an application in Microsoft Entra ID are synchronized.

Before configuring and enabling automatic user provisioning, you should decide which users and/or groups in Microsoft Entra ID need access to Priority Matrix. Once decided, you can assign these users and/or groups to Priority Matrix by following the instructions here:

Important tips for assigning users to Priority Matrix

  • It is recommended that a single Microsoft Entra user is assigned to Priority Matrix to test the automatic user provisioning configuration. Additional users and/or groups may be assigned later.

  • When assigning a user to Priority Matrix, you must select any valid application-specific role (if available) in the assignment dialog. Users with the Default Access role are excluded from provisioning.

  14. When you are ready to provision, click Save.

    Saving Provisioning Configuration

This operation starts the initial synchronization of all users and/or groups defined in Scope in the Settings section. The initial sync takes longer to perform than subsequent syncs, which occur approximately every 40 minutes as long as the Microsoft Entra provisioning service is running. You can use the Synchronization Details section to monitor progress and follow links to provisioning activity report, which describes all actions performed by the Microsoft Entra provisioning service on Priority Matrix.
