Existing Admin Role Conflict in entra Portal
How to resolve the ad sync role conflict, installing the IDFix to get a noted of conflicting objects? or any other idea?? Thanks in advance..
Take this:
1. Use the IDFix Tool:
- The IDFix tool is designed to identify and remediate conflicting objects in your on-premises Active Directory before syncing with Azure AD.
- You can download and install the tool from Microsoft's GitHub repository.
- Run the tool to scan for duplicate objects, invalid attributes, or other issues. It will suggest fixes that you can apply directly.
2. Check for Conflicting Admin Roles:
- Conflicts often arise when a user object has administrative permissions in both on-premises AD and Azure AD. Ensure that:
- The UserPrincipalName (UPN) is unique across both environments.
- The conflicting object is removed or updated in one of the directories.
3. Remove Conflicting Roles:
- If the conflict involves admin roles, remove the conflicting roles from the Azure AD object. You can do this via the Entra Admin Center or PowerShell:
Remove-AzureADDirectoryRoleMember -ObjectId <RoleObjectId> -MemberId <UserObjectId>
4. Re-Sync the Directory:
After resolving the conflicts, re-run the Azure AD Connect sync to ensure the changes are applied.
