AEM Azure AD SSO Integration

Avatar

Level 4

We followed https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/saas-apps/adobeexperiencemanager-tutorial for integration Azure AD with AEM for SSO. I am facing one issue after integration. When the user logs in thru AD, the user is created in AEM. But the user is unrecognizable as the user is given a random ID. How do I get the users email/ First Name, Last Name? I need to be able to recognize this user in order to assign him to groups. When I log in thru AD and click my profile in AEM author, this is what I see. Please help.

I ditched this way of integration in favor of IMS. Now its working fine. 

What I tried earlier (and didn't work)?

Azure AD <> AEM

What worked ?

Azure AD <> Adobe IMS <> AEM

There is good documentation on Adobe IMS to Azure AD integration please check.

Yes, I faced the same issue too. I couldn't resolve hence went with IMS integration which solved the issue.
