#AzureAD now supports Federated SSO and Provisioning with Slack

First published on CloudBlogs on Feb, 23 2017
Howdy folks, We have a very cool integration to announce today: Azure AD now supports both automated user provisioning and federated single sign-on to Slack ! With this integration, businesses can now use Azure AD to automatically provision and manage employee access to Slack, based on things like group membership or account status. In addition to provisioning user accounts, Azure AD can also create and manage groups inside of Slack, based on groups in Azure AD and Active Directory.

As one of the featured apps in the Azure AD app gallery, Azure AD also supports fully-federated single sign-on with Slack, in addition to an easy click-through setup for admins. See our documentation for more information on setting up user provisioning between Azure AD and Slack . The Azure AD Integration is available for customers on Slack's Plus plan or those using their recently-announced Enterprise Grid product. We'd like to thank the Slack team for their great partnership and support in delivering this integration, and look forward to continuing our work with them to deliver great experiences for our mutual customers! Let us know what you think about this integration! Leave us your comments at the end of this post or reach out to us on Twitter. We're always listening.
