Connect Microsoft 365
Grant Microsoft 365 tenant consent and import your organization into Elba.
Reviewed Jul 12, 2026 · Product
Connecting Microsoft 365 lets Elba import users and use the Microsoft capabilities available to your workspace.
Administrator required
Use a Microsoft Global Administrator for the end-to-end setup. Elba recognizes Application Administrators in parts of the sign-in flow, but some tenant-wide permissions can require the stronger role.
Authorize Elba
- Sign in with a work or school account for the Microsoft tenant you want to connect.
- Start the Microsoft 365 connection from Elba onboarding or Settings → Integrations.
- Configure the workspace details requested by Elba.
- Select Authorize to open Microsoft’s tenant-consent flow.
- Review the requested permissions and grant consent for the organization.
- Return to Elba and wait for the authorization check to complete.
- Allow the initial user import to finish. Consent can take up to a minute to propagate, and the import can take a few minutes.
Verify the connection
- Elba completes the authorization step and advances to the next onboarding stage.
- Users from the intended tenant begin appearing in Elba.
- Microsoft 365 reports as connected under Settings → Integrations.
Troubleshooting
- Make sure the signed-in account belongs to the intended tenant and has Global Administrator access.
- If your tenant blocks user consent, ask the Microsoft 365 administrator to complete the flow.
- If consent was granted but Elba is still waiting, allow a short propagation window before retrying.
- Restart the authorization from Elba if the Microsoft consent page has expired.
