For IT administrators and security reviewers

Microsoft sign-in. Access your team controls.

Let approved employees use their Microsoft work accounts. Connect each identity to the right Evidize user, then control access with organization permissions and product roles.

Self-service SSO setup is in controlled rollout. Confirm availability for your organization.

Product walkthrough

Start with the intended Microsoft tenant.

Workflow illustration

  1. Evidize administrator

    Open Microsoft sign-in setup

    Start from Team & access and confirm which Microsoft tenant your organization will use.

  2. Microsoft administrator

    Verify the tenant and review consent

    Use a supported tenant-administrator account to verify the tenant and review identity-only consent.

  3. Evidize administrator

    Review the connection details

    Confirm the intended tenant before linking approved members. Outlook and mailbox permissions are configured separately.

An illustration of administrator setup. Tenant verification, consent, member linking and a sign-in pilot precede activation.

An Evidize organization administrator starts setup. A supported Microsoft administrator verifies the tenant and reviews the identity-only consent.

What you work with

  • Organization administrator access
  • Microsoft tenant verification
  • Identity-only consent

What carries forward

A verified sign-in connection

Complete the tenant and consent checks before activating access. Outlook and mailbox permissions are configured separately.

Connect the right identity to the right person.

Workflow illustration

  1. Evidize administrator

    Review the existing member

    Confirm the person has an active Evidize account and the product role they need.

  2. Evidize administrator

    Link the intended Microsoft identity

    Select the known Microsoft account or verify its Object ID in the connected tenant. Matching email text alone does not establish a binding.

  3. Pilot users

    Test before requiring SSO

    Complete the administrator sign-in test before activation, then pilot an approved standard user and confirm the recovery route before requiring SSO.

An illustration of explicit identity linking and pilot testing. Provisioning and Evidize product roles remain separate from Microsoft authentication.

Review approved members and link their Microsoft identity. The Tenant ID and user Object ID identify the account; a matching email address is not enough.

What you work with

  • Existing Evidize member
  • Explicit Microsoft identity mapping
  • Administrator sign-in pilot

What carries forward

An identity your team has checked

Test the linked administrator and an approved standard user before requiring SSO. Provisioning is configured separately from sign-in.

Review each member’s product access.

Edit User panel for Amelia Parker with Standard User selected, Enabled on, and organization-default support and consent preferences

Review Amelia Parker’s Standard User role, enabled account and organization-default candidate-page preferences before saving changes.

Open a member’s role and access settings to review their product role, enabled status and candidate-page preferences. Microsoft authentication does not assign product administrator access.

What you work with

  • Assigned product role
  • Enabled account
  • Organization-default preferences

What carries forward

Access appropriate to each role

Review roles when responsibilities change. For offboarding, deactivate Evidize access and remove or disable Microsoft access.

Read the setup and recovery guide

Two systems, clear responsibilities

One work identity. The right product access.

  1. Microsoft Entra

    Authenticate

    Your configured Microsoft policies verify the work account.

  2. Evidize

    Check permissions

    Validate the linked user, organization, role and active access.

  3. Hiring workspace

    Open authorized records

    Keep the available workspace within that person’s permissions.

Rollout readiness

Know who owns each step.

Plan the pilot with your IT and Evidize administrators before changing how employees sign in.

Confirm availability

Self-service setup is in controlled rollout. Confirm your organization is enabled before scheduling a change.

Identify both administrators

Bring an active Evidize organization administrator and a supported Microsoft tenant administrator. They can be different people.

Pilot before enforcement

Test the linked administrator and an approved standard user. Verify the intended tenant, user mappings and product roles.

Arrange recovery

Keep a working sign-in method during the pilot and agree an owner-verified recovery contact before requiring SSO.

One Microsoft tenant per Evidize organization, and one Evidize organization per tenant in each environment. Personal Microsoft accounts are not supported. Provisioning is configured separately from employee SSO.

For your technical review

Which system controls what?

Microsoft verifies the work identity. Evidize controls access to the organization and its product records.

Authentication and product access responsibilities
ControlMicrosoft EntraEvidize
Sign-in Authenticates the work account. Microsoft passwords remain with Microsoft. Checks the returned identity, approved organization and explicit user binding.
MFA and access policies Applies MFA, Conditional Access and application assignment where licensed, configured and assigned. Applies its own account, organization, role and session checks.
Product permissions Microsoft administrator status does not grant an Evidize administrator role. Organization administrators approve members and assign Evidize roles; provisioning is configured separately.
Integration access Employee SSO consent covers identity information. Outlook scheduling, mailbox access and candidate check-in have separate setup and access boundaries.

Before you get started

Make it work for your team.

See the setup, responsibilities and plan requirements before you decide.

Compare plans and capabilities
Can we require Microsoft sign-in?

Yes, where SSO setup is enabled for your organization. You can retain permitted password access alongside Microsoft SSO or require SSO after a successful administrator pilot. Confirm availability, member mappings and a recovery contact before enforcement. Review the pilot steps

Does Microsoft consent create accounts or assign roles?

No. SSO consent alone does not create Evidize users, link identities or assign product roles. Provisioning, including available SCIM controls, is configured separately. Approved users need an active Evidize account, an appropriate product role and an explicit Microsoft identity binding before they can sign in.

Where do we manage MFA and Conditional Access?

Your Microsoft administrators manage those policies in Microsoft Entra, where licensed, configured and assigned. Evidize uses the resulting Microsoft authentication and applies its own user, organization, role and session checks. Local MFA indicators in the team directory are separate from Microsoft MFA policy.

What changes when someone joins, changes roles or leaves?

For a new member, provision the account, assign its Evidize role and check the Microsoft identity binding. Review product permissions when responsibilities change; a Microsoft administrator role does not confer an Evidize role. For offboarding, deactivate the Evidize user and remove or disable Microsoft access.

Does Microsoft revocation immediately end every Evidize session?

Microsoft and Evidize have separate session lifetimes. Revoking a Microsoft session or changing Microsoft policy does not necessarily end an already-issued Evidize session immediately. Deactivate the user in Evidize as well; a request already in progress may complete before revocation takes effect.

Does employee SSO grant mailbox or candidate access?

Employee sign-in uses identity information. It does not grant mailbox access. Outlook appointment setup is a separate integration, and candidate check-in is a separate journey. Evidize permissions determine which hiring records an employee can open. Review Microsoft and candidate privacy

See it with your team

Make the access plan clear before rollout.

Walk through Microsoft sign-in, identity linking and product roles with your technical team. Bring your requirements if useful; a prepared example is available.
