Corrective steps for User Sync P1s for blocked Azure users

Symptoms and conditions:

 
  1. User Sync module is used for syncing Azure users
  2. Latest sync blocked all Azure users
 

Cause:

 

Client secret generated for the Claromentis app in Azure has expired which causes connection error between Intranet and Azure during the sync.

 

Immediate resolution

 

Support team to

  • take the screenshot of the User Sync admin panel which includes the security groups in it. Ignore this step if the ‘Security groups’ is already blank
  • Communicate to the customer that they need to update the Secret ID in Azure and copy it to User sync
    • In Azure it is found in App registration > [App Name] > Manage > Certificates & Secrets > New client secret
  • Customer provides the Secret ID to Claromentis:
  • Custom team then 
    • adds it to User Sync admin panel and 
    • updates the groups, ether from the screenshot or from the recent backup of core.json
    • Runs a sync
  • Customer confirms that the issue is fixed
