Hi DNM0288
This is certainly possible!
One thing to keep in mind is that there can only be one active AADC per tenant.
To replicate multiple AD forests to 1 tenant, you need to get a trust between the 3 different tenants. Check this link for more information : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/hybrid/plan-connect-topologies#multiple-forests-single-azure-ad-tenant
This can't be done without a trust.
Once this has been setup all users will be enabled in Azure Active Directory and will authenticate to a single tenant.
If you have any more questions, don't hesistate to reply 🙂
- This is correct you can only have one AAD Connect server syncing to an AAD tenant at any given time. However you don't need a trust between forests. The AAD Connect server needs to be able to communicate to the other three forests so a VPN or another method of connectivity is needed.
