Additional configuration for users who are in over 150 groups

note

Azure’s API requires additional configuration for members of 150 groups.

Azure has limitations for users who are members of over 150 groups, which requires additional configuration. To ensure proper data transmission, follow these steps:

Navigate to Microsoft Entra ID > App Registrations and open the Logz.io app.

Next, navigate to API Permissions, and click Add a permission.

Add the three following permissions to your account:

  1. Select the APIs my organization uses tab on the right side menu, and click on Windows Azure Active Directory. Next, choose Application permissions > Directory.Read.All and add the permission.

    Add read all permission

  2. Click Add a permission. Under Microsoft APIs select Microsoft Graph. Choose Application permissions, and search for Group. Choose Group:ReadAll, and click Add permissions.

    Add group read all permission

  3. Click Add a permission, select Microsoft APIs tab and click on Microsoft Graph again. Choose Application permissions, search for Application, choose Application.Read.All, and click Add permissions.

    Add application read all permission

Next, navigate to Certificates & secrets on the left side menu, and add a New client secret. Name the secret, set the expiration date to the farthest option available, 24 months, and click the Add button.

Navigate to Overview, located on the left side menu, copy the Application (client) ID and send it with the Secret you've created to Logz.io Support team.

Once your connection has been updated and approved by Logz.io Support team, you and your team should be able to log in to Logz.io via the SSO connection (found in Apps dashboard) regardless of the number of members in a group.

(Optional) Restrict access to Logz.io to specific user groups

Add group

By default, all Azure users with Logz.io access can sign in to your Logz.io accounts.

To restrict access, navigate to the Manage users page for each account, click Add group, and paste the group's Object ID.

Find your Object ID in your Azure app > Groups. Open the relevant group and copy the Object ID string.
