Azure AD Sync, filter by group membership?

I have Azure AD Sync Setup and it works but does anyone have a working Azure App manifest that only syncs users from a specified Group in Azure AD? I thought id ask here before starting to code my own which ill need to read up on first.

I know i need to modify my Manifest file but ive not actually done it myself yet ie modify AAD manifests.

Thanks in advance,

Hi John,

You may try to use by using LDAP queries, OU , DN, CN etc to target the specific groups .

Yeah i managed to resolve it eventually with group assignments on the azure app registration.

Seemed to do the job.

Thanks

Can you tell me exactly what you did? I've been going crazy trying to do this. I can get it to sync, but it syncs the entire directory. I created a group and tried the group assignments in the Enterprise app, I've spent like 16 hours just creating and recreating and trying everything I can. It either syncs the entire directory, or it says it doesn't have permission.

I had a support ticket. Ran through all the documentation to make sure it was setup right. It was. Got escalated to level 3. Level 3 told me it is not possible to limit the sync of the azure directory. ...so I'm not sure the point of even having the option to sync with azure in the product. You will potentially sync hundreds of SharePoint/Teams/OneDrive guests users from other companies as well as all your service accounts, admin accounts, ect...

Maybe they are working on this. I don't prefer it, but I'm going to use on premise AD sync instead. Just FYI, only the top tier support developers can remove the azure sync once its setup if you decide you don't want it, or want to use AD Sync instead.

Thanks for the information. I stumbled into the challenge of removing Azure AD sync configurations more than year ago, too bad that this has not been addressed yet. Voted for the feature request.
