Oleria provides identity security and access management teams with visibility and intelligence into who has access to what; where did they get that access; how are they using it; and, should they even have it. As part of that promise, we deep integrate your Microsoft Entra ID and M365 SharePoint into the Oleria platform. This document provides step-by-step guidance for integrating Entra ID and M365 SharePoint with your Oleria workspace.

Pre-requisites:

  • The user granting these permissions must have Global Admin privileges.

Note: Standard integrations are configured with read-only permissions. If you would like to take advantage of Oleria’s access remediation capabilities, which are completely optional, you need to configure additional privileges required for write access.
