Synchronise users and groups from your Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). Azure AD is an identity management service provided by Microsoft used by Office 365.
It is cloud only, and stores user and group information. These can come from Office 365 or synchronised from a traditional domain. It is not an LDAP compatible directory store and uses a different API. It has reduced functionality so It cannot authenticate users. Authentication must come from another source like ADFS orWindows Integrated Authentication.
