Mapping attributes in Microsoft Entra ID (ME-ID) to custom user fields

If you want to import attributes from ME-ID into custom user fields, do the following:

  1. In ME-ID, navigate to the mapping settings (Provisioning - Edit provisioning - Mappings - Provision Microsoft Entra ID Users).
  2. View advanced options and navigate to Edit attribute list for customappsso
  3. For each custom user field, create a new attribute with a name of the form
    urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:alvao_tPersonCust:2.0:User:{column name of the custom field in the database}.
    Example: to import values into the tPersonCust.IpTelefon custom field, create an attribute named urn:ietf:params:scim:schemas:extension:alvao_tPersonCust:2.0:User:IpTelefon
  4. Save your changes and go back to the list of mapped attributes.
  5. Use the Add New Mapping command to create a mapping between the new attributes in SCIM and the fields from Microsoft Entra ID (the mapping specifies what and how the attributes will be populated).
  6. All existing users are updated during the next setup cycle.

For more information on mapping individual attributes, see Tutorial - Customize Microsoft Entra ID attribute mappings in Application Provisioning | Microsoft Docs.
