Azure Active Directory Connector for Search

The BA Insight Azure Active Directory connector for search makes it possible to surface content from your Azure Active Directory tenancy into a single consolidated search index, along with content from other repositories, surfacing the most relevant search results faster.

The Azure Active Directory enterprise identity service provides single sign-on and multi-factor authentication to help protect your users from 99.9 percent of cybersecurity attacks. Whether people are on-site or remote, give them seamless access to all their apps so they can stay productive from anywhere. Automate workflows for user lifecycle and provisioning. Save time and resources with self-service management.

BA Insight's Azure Active Directory connector for searchworks with SharePoint 2013/16/19, Azure Cognitive Search, Elasticsearch, AWS Elasticsearch, and Solr.

Our Azure Active Directory Connector:

• Lets you index your user information from Active Directory and select which profile attribute to make searchable.
• The user profile can then be enriched by combining it with information for your other systems such as your LMS, expertise database, etc.
• Information remains in LDAP, and the search index contains a pointer back to the source directory.

Future-proof Your Investment

As new versions of Azure Cognitive Search, Elasticsearch, AWS Elasticsearch, Solr, and SharePoint Search are released, new features and functionality are introduced.  BA Insight takes on the burden of keeping the connector up to date for all supported search engines. The upgrades are easy to do and can be done by your IT organization. It is simply a matter of accessing the BA Insight customer portal, downloading the latest release, and installing and configuring it. If desired, our professional services team can handle the upgrades.
