Before you start
- You need permission to manage companies or integration company mappings.
- A Microsoft 365 administrator for each client tenant must be available to approve the permissions, or you must have admin credentials for that tenant.
- Your rollout companies must exist in MSPortal.
- Allow pop-ups for MSPortal. Consent opens in a pop-up window.
Connect each company
1
Open the step
In Launch Center, select Connect Microsoft 365 in Setup guide. It shows the Microsoft 365 companies list. You can also go to Settings > Integrations > Microsoft 365 > Companies.
2
Find the company
Use Search companies… or the filter to find the rollout company. Check that you are on the right company before you connect.
3
Click Connect
Click Connect on the company’s row. A pop-up opens the Microsoft sign-in page.
4
Sign in and approve
Sign in with an administrator account from the client’s Microsoft 365 tenant. Read the permissions on the Microsoft consent screen and the target tenant, then approve. Finish any acknowledgment MSPortal shows first. The pop-up closes and the list refreshes.
5
Check the connection
Confirm the row shows Connected with the right Microsoft tenant. A pop-up that closed is not proof of a healthy connection.
6
Repeat for each company
Work down your rollout companies.
Check the data
1
Look at the sync
Check Last synced on the row. It covers users and groups. For licenses and Secure Score, open the Cloud page for that company.
2
Set up client users
Importing users and assigning access is separate from consent. See Prepare Company users.
3
Check Launch Center
In Launch Center, open Live verification and check A healthy Microsoft 365 connection is available. It is blocking when Microsoft 365 is your data source or you added it as an integration.
Match the rollout scope
The check needs a healthy connection for every rollout company and for any companies you selected for Microsoft 365. Connecting one company does not clear the others. For a pilot, it covers the pilot company. If a company should not be in this launch, change the plan with Edit launch plan. Do not connect an unrelated tenant just to clear a finding.Troubleshooting
