Azure AD account expiration date
We are in need of having expiration date for Azure AD User accounts. How do we acomplish that?
- Oct 06, 2021In the end I solved my issue by creating a list in Sharepoint online containing user accounts object ID and the last day of employment as a date.
Then in Microsoft Power Automate I created a flow running every night checking if any records in the list are the same or earlier than today and if so setting AzureAD account to be disabled in Azure AD. When on it I also remove the account from the Azure AD security group providing Microsoft 365 licenses.
So by not having account expire date in Azure AD in the end was giving me the opportunity to do more. Thanks Microsoft. 😄

No such attribute in Azure AD, you can use a custom workflow/script instead.
- pema012Oct 05, 2021Copper ContributorThanks Vasil,
I know a lot of companies use this in Windows Active Directory for short term employees or consultants. My reaction in this community is rather due to the lack of funcionality i MS Azure AD.
I will fix my problem with custom workflows but it seems unnecessary to me. Better if Microsoft copies this attribute from Windows Active Directory i think. I understand copying functionality from Windows AD is not really how they do it but it can't be impossible for them to build it.
Again, thanks for your response. - tfseakFeb 05, 2024Copper ContributorThat's very STUPID from Microsoft to not add this attribute.
IT is supposed to lighten our work load but "thanks" to Microsoft, our workload has just been increased *USELESSLY* !!!
