Why teams connect Azure Active Directory and Monday

Keep the users, groups, and profile details that Monday and Azure Active Directory share consistent in real time, so who can work in Monday always matches who your directory in Azure Active Directory says belongs there.

Azure Active Directory is where a company records who its people are: their accounts, the groups and roles they hold, and the attributes attached to each one. Monday is where a slice of those same people do their work, as agents, members, or seats, and every one of them needs a matching account with the right access. When a directory and a productivity tool are maintained by hand, someone added, moved, or offboarded in one becomes a stale entry in the other within the hour.

Stacksync syncs Groups, Updates, Users, Workspaces in Monday with Applications, Service principals, Directory roles, Devices in Azure Active Directory bi-directionally and in real time. A user created, renamed, moved between groups, or deactivated in either system updates the matching record in the other within seconds, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution in place of CSV uploads and nightly IT batch jobs.

That matters most at the edges of employment. When both systems agree on who has an account, which groups they belong to, and whether they are still active, granting access on day one and revoking it on the last day stops being a manual checklist that trails the directory.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror monday.com Boards, Groups, and Subitems into a warehouse for cross-project reporting on status and timelines without CSV exports.
  • 02 Push support tickets or orders from an operational database into monday.com Items, then read status Column values back when work completes.
  • 03 Sync manager, department, and jobTitle from an HRIS back onto Entra ID User attributes to keep dynamic groups and Conditional Access accurate.
  • 04 Replicate Groups and their Members into a Postgres warehouse for access reviews and entitlement reporting.

Common sync patterns

Keep profile attributes current

A person's name, email, department, manager, or phone number corrected in either system updates the other, so the productivity tool shows the same details the directory holds of record.

Mirror group and role membership

Moving a user between groups or roles in Azure Active Directory updates their team, permission set, or seat in Monday, so what someone can do reflects where they sit in the directory.

One record per person

People matched across both systems on email or an external ID stay linked, so every account and action in Monday ties back to the right identity in Azure Active Directory.

What you can sync between Azure Active Directory and Monday

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Azure Active Directory objects Monday objects How this pairing syncs
Users /users in Microsoft Graph; synced two-way — profile attributes, accountEnabled, and assignedLicenses are read out while provisioning writes (create, update, disable, delete) are pushed back. Users Account members referenced by people columns; read to resolve owner and assignee IDs to names and emails. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Groups /groups covering security and Microsoft 365 groups; created, updated, and deleted through Graph, and read into warehouses for entitlement reporting. Groups Named sections that group items inside a board; synced as a grouping attribute or category field on the row. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Applications App registrations under /applications; usually read into a database or CMDB for app ownership and credential-expiry tracking. Items Rows within a board and the primary record; synced two-way and created, updated, archived, or deleted via GraphQL mutations. Applications is specific to Azure Active Directory and Items to Monday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Service principals /servicePrincipals (enterprise apps) plus appRoleAssignments; read for app inventory and access-posture reporting. Subitems Nested rows under items, stored on a separate hidden board; synced as a child table linked to the parent item. Service principals is specific to Azure Active Directory and Subitems to Monday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Directory roles /directoryRoles and roleManagement assignments; read for privileged-access reviews, with role-assignment writes where the granted scopes permit. Column values Typed fields (status, date, people, numbers, connect-boards); polymorphic JSON usually written together via change_multiple_column_values. Directory roles is specific to Azure Active Directory and Column values to Monday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Devices /devices registered or joined to the tenant; typically read-only into asset and security databases. Updates Comment and activity threads attached to items; read out into a database for reporting or written back as notes. Devices is specific to Azure Active Directory and Updates to Monday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure Active Directory and Monday

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Azure Active Directory Monday Sub-second propagation

DetectionAzure Active Directory notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Microsoft Graph delta query (deltaLink tokens returning only changed users and groups, with @removed deletions) paired with change-notification.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Monday through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Monday Azure Active Directory Sub-second propagation

DetectionMonday notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Board-scoped webhooks (create_item, change_column_value, item_deleted, and similar) for real-time events.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Azure Active Directory through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Azure Active Directory: Resource-unit throttling: roughly 8,000 ResourceUnits per 10 seconds per app for reads on tenants over 500 users, writes near 3,000 requests per 2.5 minutes; 429 responses include a Retry-After header.
  • Monday: Complexity-budget limits: a single query caps at 5M complexity points and ~10M points/min per user token (1M on trial/free) over a sliding 60s window.
