Migration for Microsoft Azure AD Connections to Microsoft Graph API
Microsoft is deprecating the Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) API in favor of the Microsoft Graph API. This change affects Microsoft Azure AD connections that currently use the deprecated Azure AD API. This article clarifies the required actions for migrating connections to the Microsoft Graph API.

It is not possible to provide a definitive list of specific connections that use the Azure AD API, as this relates to how the connection was initially configured. The migration requires two primary actions to ensure a seamless transition:
-
Ensure all Microsoft Azure AD connections in the environment use Identity API v2.
-
Review all custom code, such as Rules or Actions, to verify that any calls to the deprecated Azure AD API are updated to use the Microsoft Graph API.
Migration for the connection itself generally involves changing the Azure Application configuration from the Azure AD API to the Microsoft Graph API. The Azure Active Directory v2 Identity Provider documentation indicates no additional work is needed for basic connection functionality.
