Automate employee onboarding tasks before their first day of work using Lifecycle Workflows APIs

Articolo
03/13/2024

This tutorial provides step-by-step guidance for automating prehire tasks with Lifecycle Workflows APIs.

In this tutorial, you learn how to:

Configure a lifecycle workflow to check for new employees in a specific department, two days before their hire date.
Configure a task to generate a temporary access pass (TAP) for the new employee and send it to the new employee's manager.
Monitor the status of the workflow and its associated tasks.

Prerequisites

To complete this tutorial, you need the following resources and privileges:

This feature requires Microsoft Entra ID Governance licenses. To find the right license for your requirements, see Microsoft Entra ID Governance licensing fundamentals.
Sign in to an API client such as Graph Explorer to call Microsoft Graph with account that has at least the Lifecycle Administrator Microsoft Entra role.
Grant yourself the LifecycleWorkflows.ReadWrite.All Microsoft Graph delegated permission.

Create two user accounts to use in this tutorial: one for the new hire and another for their manager and have the following settings configured as applicable.

User property	Description	Set on
mail	Used to notify manager of the new employee's temporary access pass (TAP). Both the manager and employee should have active mailboxes to receive emails.	Employee, Manager
manager	This attribute that is used by the lifecycle workflow.	Employee
employeeHireDate	Used to trigger the workflow. Set to today's date.	Employee
department	Used to provide the scope for the workflow. Set to `Sales`.	Employee, Manager

Enable the Temporary Access Pass (TAP) policy in your tenant and the new user enabled to use the authentication method.

Create a "joiner" workflow

Request

The following request creates a prehire workflow with the following settings:

It can be run on-demand but not on schedule.
The workflow runs two days before the employee's hire date, and if they are in the "Sales" department.
Only one built-in task runs in this workflow: to generate the TAP and send it to the new hire's manager. This task is identified in Lifecycle Workflows by the taskDefinitionId 1b555e50-7f65-41d5-b514-5894a026d10d.

Check tasks and workflow status

At any time, you can monitor the status of the workflows and their associated tasks at three levels.

Monitor tasks at the user level.
Monitor the aggregate high-level summary of the user-level results for a workflow, within a specified period.
Retrieve the detailed log of all tasks that were executed for a specific user in the workflow.

Option 1: Monitor tasks for a workflow at the user level

[Optional] Schedule the workflow to run automatically

After running your workflow on-demand and checking that everything is working fine, you might want to enable the workflow so that it can run automatically on a tenant-defined schedule. Run the following request.

The request returns a 204 No Content response. When a workflow is scheduled, the Lifecycle Workflows engine checks every three hours for user objects that match the associated execution condition and executes the configured tasks for those users. You can customize this recurrence from between one hour to 24 hours.
