Office 365

The Office 365 integration allows you to sync SysAid with your Office 365 account so you can automatically log in to SysAid whenever you are logged in to Office 365.

For this integration to work, you must be running SysAid 16.1.25 or higher.

Set up Office 365 integration in SysAid

The first step to enabling your Office 365 integration is configuring certain parameters from SysAid's Office 365 integration page. Speak to your account manager to ensure that Office 365 is added to your available integrations.

Enable the integration

2. (Optional) You can replace the domain of users who log into SysAid via Office 365 with any name you want in the Domain Mapping field. This allows you to sync users with their existing names in SysAid.
   To map domains, use the "=" character. You can map multiple domains by entering them in a comma-separated list. For example, "MyDomain= MyCompany.com, MyDomain2= MyCompany.com".
   If you want user names to contain the Office 365 domain, leave this field blank.

3. (Optional) If you want to use the Azure Email Address field as the User Principle Name instead of the Azure user name, enter "Y" in the Sync user based on email address field.

4. Click Save Changes.

5. Click the Activate Integration slider.
    

This completes the SysAid Office 365 integration!

When you access your SysAid login screen, you are routed to the Office 365 login screen. If you are logged into Office 365, you are automatically logged in to SysAid.
