I'm have been setting up Keycloak in an test environment as an IdP, with a user federation to Microsoft Active directory LDAP.
I've been able to sync the roles with ldap-mapper and I can see the roles under Clients - 'Assigned Roles'.
My question is if this means the clients/application that we add will give the right person the right permission when they log in?
For example, if some of the users has admin permissions in AD and others not, in AD, will that permissions follow?
Thanks.
I'm not able to access any tabs in AAD. What could be the issue?
Please check if below points can be worked around in your case.
Buttions or options being greyed out maybe because , you may not have had global admin rights/user administrator rights on the azure AD tenant. There are a few roles which can create users within the directory. You may not have any roles within the directory which permit the operations.
Reference: github issue.
Even in Azure AD free edition ,one should be able to create the users if you have proper roles .
On completion of the first 30 days of Microsoft Azure’s free trial,
your ‘Free Trial’ Azure Subscription will be disabled. To fix this,
the subscription needs to be changed to the ‘Pay-As-You-Go’ plan
instead of the ‘Free Trial’ plan which it is currently on.
For example :For applications under Enterprise application, one of the following roles: Global Administrator, Cloud Application
Administrator, Application Administrator, or owner of the service
principal.
You can check Azure AD built-in roles, and by checking the
description of role , assign the required one to manage identity .
You can Assign Azure AD roles to users to manage the identities
if you have global or role administrator rights. Approach the
admin to assign the roles .Also see custom roles in Azure AD
if needed.
Please check if this issue in - Microsoft Q&A can relate .
If issue still remains you can raise a support request in troubleshoot+support blade.
We have an application which parses the Audit Logs emitted by Azure AD. More specifically we are parsing the 'Update application' log to detect when a new Role has been added to an Application (see example below).
We would like to find out more information about the "DirectAccessGrantTypes" and "ImpersonationAccessGrantTypes" fields. If someone can point us to documentation for this that would be great.

From article > View reports & logs in entitlement management - Azure AD | Microsoft Docs
When Azure AD receives a new request, it writes an audit record, in
which the Category is EntitlementManagement and the Activity is
typically User requests access package assignment. In the case of a
direct assignment created in the Azure portal, the Activity field of
the audit record is Administrator directly assigns user to access package, and the user performing the assignment is identified by the
ActorUserPrincipalName.
Application Impersonation is basically an administrator-managed, not user-managed permission.
Impersonate access grants logs gives information ex:count., of users given consent by the admin to access the application to impersonate user.
ImpersonationAccessGrantTypes gives count or info of access grants by admin on behalf of user whereas DirectAccessGrantTypes gives info about the users who directly access the application ,as they are already assigned by admin.

I am trying to create a new service principal using the command below using azure cli v2.0.
az ad sp create-for-rbac --name ServicePrincipalName
Changing "ServicePrincipalName" to a valid URI of "http://ServicePrincipalName", which is the required format used for service principal names
Found an existing application instance of "abcd-8f27-47cf-9976-xkkfigif5e1de". We will patch it
Insufficient privileges to complete the operation.
I am not sure what privileges the Azure Admin of my tenant should assign to my user so i can create a servicePrincipal any guidelines or document pointers please
First, you have to know what this command will do. The command az ad sp create-for-rbac --name ServicePrincipalName will create an AD App(app registration) along with a service principal in your tenant, the AD App will have an Application ID URI named http://ServicePrincipalName, a Display name named ServicePrincipalName. Then the command will add the service principal to your subscription as a Contributor.
The error you got means there is already an AD App with the Application ID URI equals http://ServicePrincipalName existing in your tenant. And you are not the Owner of the AD App. (Note: in the tenant, the Display name is not unique, but the Application ID URI is.)
To solve the issue and use this command successfully, follow the tips below.
1.Change the ServicePrincipalName to a different one. (Or if your admin allow you to use the existing AD App mentioned above, just let him add your user account as an Owner to the AD App. - not recommend)
2.If your account's User type is just a Member in the tenant. Make sure in the portal -> AAD -> User settings -> Users can register applications is Yes. If your account is a Guest , except the Users can register applications need to be Yes, also User settings -> External collaboration settings -> Guest users permissions are limited need to be No.
3.Your user account should be the Owner of the subscription. Otherwise you can create the service principal successfully, but you cannot add it to the subscription.
I am using differential query (AzureAD graph API) to detect changes in Azure AD from the last sync. I am getting all users, group memberships, manager changes. Only missing information is Directory Role assignment (e.g Billing administrator, SharePoint administrator etc).
How can I detect a change in roles of any user?
API - https://graph.windows.net/{org}/directoryObjects?api-version=1.5&deltaLink=xxxxxttttxxxxxxxx
First, if you have enabled those Directory Roles, you can use AAD Graph API operations on directory roles to list members of those roles.
GET https://graph.windows.net/myorganization/directoryRoles/{object_id}/$links/members?api-version=1.6
But, This API can also list service principals which assigned this role.
