How do I monitor Azure AD Connect runs for adds/deletes?

Iron Contributor

I'd like to be alerted of adds/deletes from Azure AD Connect. Is this possible? The Synchronization Service Manager doesn't seem to have an option to email job run summaries.

 

I see there is a "Log file" field in the connector profile steps but the default steps don't seem to be editable.

 

I'd like to catch my mistake of deleting a user from O365 because I moved them to an OU that's not being tracked before my boss does because he tried to send that person an email and O365 says, "No can do."

Azure AD Health can offer you some insights to that: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/connect-health/active-directory-aadconnect-h...

 

Though it doesnt offer email notifications for the task at hand, and it requires Prem licenses. So you might as well just keep an eye on the MIIS Client instead 🙂

Hi Chris,

 

You can go to Security & Compliance and do the following:

  • Go to Alerts
  • Create a New alert policy
  • Select Custom 
  • On the activities under "User Administration activities" select Added user and Deleted User or other that you need
  • On the users leave the field blank
  • Chose the user where to receive email

 

For example after you create a user you will receive a email message like in the image bellow.Untitled222.png

 

Nuno saves the day, I tottally forgot about the SCC alerts!

Fantastic. This section is something I haven't explored much. Looks like I have some poking around to do.
