This is where DynamicSync helps

Many companies are opening up in the direction of the cloud – not only to reduce costs, but also to become more flexible in terms of collaboration or access to IT resources.
As a result, hybrid IT environments are emerging in many places. Users and permissions are managed both in Active Directory and in the cloud, usually in Azure Active Directory.

DynamicSync synchronizes groups in Azure to other AAD groups. It facilitates the management of Azure AD group memberships. 

Synchronize dynamic groups in Azure AD

More specifically, this is about synchronizing AD, M365 and security groups into other Azure AD groups. DynamicSync also enables the use of dynamic filters for attribute-based assignment of group members.

Regular scheduled synchronizations ensure that the data is always up-to-date.

Who benefits from DynamicSync

DynamicSync is a useful application for:

  • IT administrators who want to dynamically manage groups in Azure AD
  • hybrid-working companies that want to use MS Teams with synchronized AD groups
  • budget-oriented customers who need dynamic AAD groups without buying expensive AAD P1 licenses
  • efficient organizations that want to turn synchronized AD security groups into M365 groups

Get to know DynamicSync in a free online demo. Our team will be happy to answer your questions.

Main features of DynamicSync

Dynamic filters for attribute-based AAD groups

A main feature of DynamicSync are the dynamic filters for attribute-based groups. They allow filtering Azure AD users according to selected Azure AD attributes. 

Synchronize Dynamic Groups in Azure - Dynamic filters

By enabling the filter, attributes can be selected from a drop-down list and precisely defined by specific values. DynamicSync filters out the matching members and assigns them to a target group.

Various AAD attributes are suitable as filters, such as:

  • ‘department’ for filtering department groups
  • ‘officeLocation’ for filtering office locations
  • ‘preferredLanguage’ for filtering language specific groups

Synchronization of M365 and security groups

In addition, the application enables the fast synchronization of cloud groups. This means that all source groups in Azure can be synchronized with other groups in the cloud.

DynamicGroupSync SyncJob Settings

Source groups include all groups synchronized from AD, as well as M365 groups and security groups. Available target groups are M365 groups as well as AAD security groups.

Synchronized AD groups for MS Teams

More and more companies are using Microsoft Teams as a collaboration platform. Using DynamicSync, you can create new teams in Microsoft Teams from AD groups.

With synchronization, various permissions and security levels are passed on, such as:

  • Teams access
  • File storage in SharePoint
  • License assignments
  • Mobile Apps (Outlook etc.)

DynamicSync as a cloud service (SaaS)

Immediate access, reduced costs

As a pure cloud service, DynamicSync is available immediately after installation. The only system requirement is Azure AD and Azure AD Connect (for synchronizing your AD groups to the cloud).

The advantages are obvious: besides the fast implementation, you leave the hosting, updates and security aspects in expert hands.

Work in one interface in the cloud

In the SyncJobs overview, both the completed jobs and the group mapping (source and target groups) are displayed. In addition, a status message provides security whether the synchronization was completed successfully.  

SyncJobs overview

All jobs are listed and can be:

  • synchronized manually
  • paused or
  • edited immediately

Thanks to a Smart Search feature, users of the app can quickly find their jobs.
