Setting up SAML with Microsoft Entra ID

For an overall understanding of the SAML authentication feature, read the Overview page.

To set up SAML with Microsoft Entra ID:

If you want to use Just-in-Time provisioning with the group synchronization feature, verify the user groups in SonarQube Server so that the automatic group synchronization can take place properly. See Just-in-Time provisioning > Group synchronization in Authentication and provisioning overview.
Register SonarQube Server in Entra ID.
Configure SAML in SonarQube Server.
If you want to use SCIM provisioning, set up SCIM provisioning.
Optionally, set up security features.

Group synchronization doesn't work with Microsoft Entra ID's nested groups.
Microsoft Entra ID SAML tokens have a limit regarding the number of groups a user can belong to (see the description of groups in the Claims in SAML Token table). In such cases, you might need to reduce the number of groups the user is in.
