Admin Management

Enhanced directory group management capabilities for M365 and Google Workspace integration.

Back

This release brings improved admin management capabilities through direct integration with M365 and Google Workspace directory groups, simplifying administrative access control across organizations and teams.

Directory Group Management

If your team has the Domain and Directory Access API enabled, API Access - INKY, you'll now be able to add M365 or Google Workspace groups directly to the Admin Management page. This allows members to access INKY at the level of access assigned to the group.

This was previously handled through manually adding the Tenant ID and Group ID directly to the page - this enhancement now allows you to scroll the list of groups within your tenant to directly select the intended group.

Follow the steps found here to get started: Admin Management | Add Admin by Active Directory Groups

You can also assign groups to an organization level. Organizations are denoted with the “Skyscraper” icon, options listed when you have an organization selected affect all of the child teams - including which users can manage a child team. Groups pulled at an organization level come from the base team that's created to build an organization.

For example: polvocapital-o365 is the base teamid used for INKY's honeypot account. In the picture above there is no “Skyscraper” icon next to “Polvo Capital” in the top left corner of the picture - this means we're looking at the base team.

In the picture below you'll see fewer settings options and the “Skyscraper” icon next to “Polvo Capital” - these means we're looking at the organization level. The groups in the Tenant Group dropdown are the same as the base team because the organization inherits them. This allows MSPs (organizations) the ability to assign groups to specific INKY roles, giving members access at the appropriate level to all child teams.
