become the Azure AD cloud user to the internal AD
Hello, we have cloud only users in Azure AD. Now we like to create an internal AD. Is it possible to become the Azure AD cloud user to the internal AD? The other way around I can use AD Connect. ...
- I was reading it as syncing users to on-premises AD! That’s not possible but as Chris wrote, creating them I AD - and then merging them with the cloud users is indeed possible! :)
Yes. When you run azure ad connect, you have an option to choose from a bunch of user properties to match on premises user to an existing azure ad user. It's easiest if they have same SMTP account.
