Use Cases for Azure AD Integrator
User Registration in Azure AD from Joomla site from Joomla site
Requirement:
When using a Joomla site, users typically have to manually register for an account, which can be a time-consuming process for both the user and the website administrator. Additionally, the website administrator may need to manually create and manage user accounts in Azure AD.
Solution:
The solution provided by miniOrange Joomla Azure AD integrator is to use a registration
form plugin like RS Form, Default Joomla Form, or a custom form to create a seamless registration
process for users. The registration form contains all the necessary input fields, and users can register
using that form just like any other registration process. All the tedious work, such as creating and
managing user accounts in Azure AD, is done automatically at the backend by the Joomla Azure integrator.
To enhance the registration process, the solution can be extended by adding email or phone number
verification during registration and also by adding profile update and password reset forms in Joomla.
However, some customizations may be required to add support for the specific registration form being
used and the profile fields it contains.
Overall, this solution streamlines the registration process and reduces the workload for both users and
website administrators, making it a convenient and efficient solution for Joomla site owners.

User Sync between Joomla and Azure AD

Key Features for this Use Case
User creation synchronization

Profile update synchronization
Whenever an Admin updates a user's profile in the Joomla backend, the same user profile gets updated in Azure AD and vice versa.
User deletion synchronization
Whenever an administrator deletes a user in the Joomla backend, the same user gets deleted in Azure AD and vice versa.
Role-based access control
The plugin allows admin to configure specific Joomla roles/groups for the user to be a guest or a member in Azure. This ensures that users have the appropriate level of access to resources on both systems based on their roles/groups assigned.
