Automate AzureAD Configuration and Deployment
Hey all, new to Azure/AzureAD and coming from AWS. In AWS we automated everything after account set from configuration of IAM to network security. Starting with AzureAD I find:
- Muddled view of CLI tools
- Azure CLI
- Powershell and Powershell Previews
- MSOnline
- MS Graph API not so well documented and lots of stuff in Beta
I also find I have to manually configure a lot of the elements in AzureAD directly in the UI. Since we don't seem to have any config backup options in AzureAD this is worrying me! What happens if a rouge script/admin blows away some config! 🙂
- I mostly use the official Graph docs.
They are a bit to navigate at first but they get used to it.
You would want the Identity bit - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/azure-ad-overview?view=graph-rest-1.0

- Backup is indeed something that is currently not implemented into AAD and I understand your concern.
Other enterprise create their own scheduled tasks to backup through Graph APIThijs Lecomte thanks for this but looking through Graph some config items don't seem to be documented. Is there a central reference for all AzureAD items in Graph?
