Bonjour,

Nous avons installé Azure AD Connect pour synchroniser notre AD avec notre tenant acme.onmicrosoft.com.

Le compte de synchronisation a bien été créé, sur notre tenant. Plus globalement, un compte créé sur l'AD remonte bien sur Entra ID.

Mais pas le contraire: aucun des comptes existants ou créés ensuite ne sont répliqués sur l'AD: Pourquoi ?

Merci par avance

L.

    @Lilian Abraham

    Thank you for posting this in Microsoft Q&A.

    AD connect is always one way sync for objects (users, groups, contacts and devices). AD connect syncs objects from on-prem to Azure AD.

    AD connect doesn't writeback user from Azure AD to on-premises AD. The user writeback preview feature was removed in the August 2015 update to Azure AD Connect.

    This is also documented in our public document https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/hybrid/how-to-connect-preview#user-writeback

    Currently we do not have this feature. However, this might be one of our upcoming features in AD connect.

    You can submit the feedback regarding this in our Azure feedback portal.

    Hi @Lilian Abraham ,

    I am not sure if I understand it right.

    You question is about syncing an Microsoft Entra ID user to your on-premises AD?
    If so: Azure AD Connect (Microsoft Entra ID Connect) syncs users/groups only in one direction: From you local AD to Microsoft Entra ID. Users created in Entra ID are not synced to your local AD.

    (If the reply was helpful please don't forget to upvote and/or accept as answer, thank you)

    Regards

    Andreas Baumgarten
