Microsoft Enterprise Application Configuration and Settings
- Create and register an enterprise application that you want to integrate with Oracle Access Governance. For more information, refer Microsoft documentation.
- Generate a client secret for the application
- Grant the following delegated and application permissions for
the Microsoft Graph API:
Delegated Permission
- Directory.ReadWrite.All
- Group.ReadWrite.All
- GroupMember.ReadWrite.All
- User.Read
- User.ReadWrite
Application Permission
- Directory.ReadWrite.All
- Group.ReadWrite.All
- GroupMember.ReadWrite.All
- User.ReadWrite.All
- RoleManagement.ReadWrite.Directory
- Click the Grant Admin Consent button to provide directory-wide full permissions to perform the related API tasks for an integrated system
For more information, refer to the Microsoft documentation.
Configure
You can establish a connection between Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) and Oracle Access Governance by entering connection details. To achieve this, use the orchestrated systems functionality available in the Oracle Access Governance Console.
Navigate to the Orchestrated Systems Page
- From the Oracle Access Governance navigation menu icon
, select Service Administration → Orchestrated Systems.
- Click the Add an orchestrated system button to start the workflow.
Select system
On the Select system step of the workflow, you can specify which type of system you would like to onboard. You can search for the required system by name using the Search field.
- Select Microsoft Entra ID.
- Click Next.
Enter details
On the Enter Details step of the workflow, enter the details for the orchestrated system:
- Enter a name for the system you want to connect to in the What do you want to call this system? field.
- Enter a description for the application in the How do you want to describe this system? field.
- Determine if this orchestrated system is an authoritative source, and if Oracle Access Governance can manage permissions for existing users by setting the following
checkboxes.
- This is the authoritative source for my identities
- I want to manage permissions for this system
- Click Next.
Configure
On the Configure step of the workflow, enter the configuration details required to allow Oracle Access Governance to connect to Microsoft Entra ID.
- In the Host field, enter the host name of the machine hosting your Managed System. For example, for the Microsoft Graph API, you may enter graph.microsoft.com
- In the Port field, enter the port number at which the system will be accessible. By default, Microsoft Entra ID uses port 443.
- Enter the URL of the authentication server that validates the
client ID and client secret for your Managed System in the Authentication Server Url field. For example, to authenticate
the application using the OAuth 2.0 API, enter in the following syntax
To know how to fetch your Primary domain or tenant ID, refer Microsoft documentation.https://login.microsoftonline.com/<Primary Domain or Directory(tenant ID)>/oauth2/v2.0/token
- Enter the client identifier (a unique string) issued by the authorization server to your client system during the registration process, into the Client ID field. The client ID, also known as Application ID, is obtained when registering an application in Microsoft Entra ID. This value identifies your application in the Microsoft identity platform. For more details refer to Microsoft documentation.
- In the Client secret field, enter the secret ID value to
authenticate the identity of your system. You need to create a new client secret
for your system and enter the value in this field. Only use this value when you
are not using private key for authentication.
Note:
You must note or copy this client secret value, as you won't be able access or view it once you leave the page. - Enter PEM private key into the Private key field, only when
you are not using Client secret for authentication.
For test purposes only, you can generate a self-signed certificate using the following steps:
- Create an encrypted private key which you will load into the
Entra ID
instance.
openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout encrypted_key.pem -out cert.cer -sha256 -days 365
- Decrypt the private key to create a .pem (decrypted_key.pem
in the example) file which you can enter as the value for the Private
key when configuring Oracle Access Governance.
openssl rsa -in encrypted_key.pem -out decrypted_key.pem
- Optionally, if your private key is in PKCS1 format, convert
the decrypted key for PKCS8 format which is supported in Oracle Access Governance.
openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -inform PEM -outform PEM -nocrypt -in decrypted_key.pem -out pkcs8.key
- Create an encrypted private key which you will load into the
Entra ID
instance.
- Enter the value for the certificate fingerprint (X509) in the
Certificate fingerprint, only when you are not using Client secret
for authentication. .
To obtain the certificate fingerprint use the following steps:
- Convert the hex value of the certificate thumbprint to
binary.
echo -n "***353DB6DF03567473E299DB5E7F4C***" | xxd -r -p > thumbprint.bin
- Convert the binary thumbprint to base64 which can be used in
the Certificate fingerprint
field.
openssl base64 -in thumbprint.bin -out thumbprint_base64.txt
- Convert the hex value of the certificate thumbprint to
binary.
- Click Add to create the orchestrated system.
Finish up
- Customize before enabling the system for data loads
- Activate and prepare the data load with the provided defaults
