This classification gives you visibility into who has access to your applications and helps you identify identities that should be governed, reassigned, or removed.

Prerequisites

Assigned identities match a user or group in Microsoft Entra ID that's already assigned to the application. These identities are fully managed by the provisioning service. No action is needed unless you want to review or update their attribute mappings.

Review group memberships

You can view the number of members in each discovered group and review its membership.

Find the discovered group in the discovery results.
Review the member count for the group.
Select the member count to view the list of members in the group.

Assign correlated users to your enterprise application and/or access packages

After discovering users in your application, you can assign those users to the enterprise application or an access package. Download the Assign-CorrelatedUsers.ps1 file and run it in PowerShell 7.x to assign users.
