Permissions

Choose the permission or permissions marked as least privileged for this API. Use a higher privileged permission or permissions only if your app requires it. For details about delegated and application permissions, see Permission types. To learn more about these permissions, see the permissions reference.

Permission type Least privileged permissions Higher privileged permissions
Delegated (work or school account) EntitlementManagement.ReadWrite.All Not available.
Delegated (personal Microsoft account) Not supported. Not supported.
Application EntitlementManagement.ReadWrite.All Not available.

Tip

In delegated scenarios with work or school accounts, the signed-in user must also be assigned an administrator role with supported role permissions through the following option:

  • A Microsoft Entra role where the least privileged role is Identity Governance Administrator. This is the least privileged option.

In app-only scenarios, the calling app can be assigned one of the preceding supported roles instead of the EntitlementManagement.ReadWrite.All application permission. The Identity Governance Administrator role is less privileged than the EntitlementManagement.ReadWrite.All application permission.

For more information, see Delegation and roles in entitlement management and how to delegate access governance to access package managers in entitlement management.

HTTP request

POST /identityGovernance/entitlementManagement/connectedOrganizations

Request headers

Name Description
Authorization Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.
Content-Type application/json. Required.

Request body

In the request body, supply a JSON representation of the connectedOrganization object.

The following table lists the properties that are required when you create the connectedOrganization.

Property Type Description
displayName String The connected organization name.
description String The connected organization description.
identitySources identitySource collection A collection with one element, the initial identity source in this connected organization.
state connectedOrganizationState The state of a connected organization defines whether assignment policies with requestor scope type AllConfiguredConnectedOrganizationSubjects are applicable or not. Possible values are: configured, proposed.

The single member of the identitySources collection should be of either the domainIdentitySource or externalDomainFederation type. If the caller provides a domainIdentitySource, the call is successful, and the domain corresponds to a registered domain of a Microsoft Entra tenant, then the resulting connectedOrganization that is created will have an identitySources collection containing a single member of the azureActiveDirectoryTenant type.

Response

If successful, this method returns a 201 Created response code and a new connectedOrganization object in the response body.
