Microsoft Azure integration can greatly speed up the onboarding process of new users in your Pascal organisation. This feature enables the possibility to use the single sign-on button on the login page.

Setting up Microsoft Azure

In your company's Azure environment several settings need to be configured before Microsoft Azure can be configured in Pascal.

  1. Within your own Azure environment navigate to User settings.
  2. In the section enterprise application settings, a toggle can be found. Either one of two options need to be turned on: Users can consent to apps accessing company data on their behalf or Users can request admin consent to apps they are unable to consent to.

Adding a Tenant ID to Pascal

  1. Click on your initials in the top right corner.
  2. Select Settings besides your Pascal environment's name.
  3. Navigate to the Integrations page in the Organisation section.

Approval workflow for new users

It is possible to first review which employees would like access to Pascal. Within the Integrations turn on the feature Require approval before users can join your organisation in Pascal.

  2. Select Settings besides your Pascal environment's name.
  3. Navigate to the Integrations page in the Organisation section.
