### Assign Users and Groups

> [!NOTE]
> [](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/conditional-access/?WT.mc_id=APC-AzureADConditionalAccess)By default, when you create a new App registration, the "Assignment required?" attribute is set to "No". However, if your Passport Enterprise app is set to require assignment, you will need to follow these steps to assign users in order to be able to use your Passport app.

1. In the Identity navigation menu on the left, open **Applications** and select **Enterprise Applications**.
2. In the All applications list, select **Kandji Passport Web Login** or whatever name you named the App registration in the previous section. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/0844b095-d720-4a7b-bb17-ec97d9bc6e41/Images/Documentation/ebsek94nut_zqsoclvjkqhwhfbylqjj6dq.png)
3. Under **Manage**, select **Properties**.
4. *Optionally,* add a logo to your Enterprise App.
5. Inspect the **Assignment required?** setting. If it is set to "No," then you can skip the rest of this section. All users in Entra ID will be able to use the Passport app.
6. Confirm that the **Visible to users?** setting is set toggled to "No"; otherwise, users will see it in their portal. The Passport app is only useful as a replacement for the macOS login window.
7. Click **Save**. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/0844b095-d720-4a7b-bb17-ec97d9bc6e41/Images/Documentation/cmfcdvuaru5ypidn2kgsxutkqyios3enpw.png)
8. If the **Assignment required?** setting is set to "Yes,"
9. Under **Manage**, select **Users and Groups**. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/0844b095-d720-4a7b-bb17-ec97d9bc6e41/Images/Documentation/b8z76jac-okdtv9djfk_kjmhhosdaz_liq.png)
10. On the menu, select + **Add user/group**. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/0844b095-d720-4a7b-bb17-ec97d9bc6e41/Images/Documentation/xftxbytpvhz6fde1f4brq4thdog7ztkp3w.png)
11. On the **Add Assignment** dialog, select the link under **Users and groups**.
12. A list of users and security groups is displayed. You can search for a specific user or group or select multiple users and groups that appear in the list.
13. After you have selected your users and groups, select **Select**. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/0844b095-d720-4a7b-bb17-ec97d9bc6e41/Images/Documentation/w-ha76snqiyu9nk8rburcaehrle-wvcjaq.png)If you see the message below, it means that a free tier is being used. You can only add users (not groups) to the Passport Enterprise App. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/0844b095-d720-4a7b-bb17-ec97d9bc6e41/Images/Documentation/6jadr5z7fvl_2zn7roc9op1bm9hfjsq3tq.png)

  2. Select the group that you want to use. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/0844b095-d720-4a7b-bb17-ec97d9bc6e41/Images/Documentation/4484emj7cphu5yrdzim416m5bvrwwiwuvq.png)
  3. Copy the **Object Id** for that group. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/0844b095-d720-4a7b-bb17-ec97d9bc6e41/Images/Documentation/lth4vbii5zagti2gaeix-4kmery0eibkxq.png)
  4. In the Kandji Passport Library Item, in the User Provisioning section, paste the value from the previous section into the **Identity provider group** field. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/0844b095-d720-4a7b-bb17-ec97d9bc6e41/Images/Documentation/ovfijcbcb9iyjsbum_fuwpmvkfdv5jv2cg.png)
  5. Repeat the previous steps for each additional Entra ID group you want to use.
  6. In the Passport Library Item, click **Save.**

### Other Considerations

- If you are setting the default account type to standard user, only add administrator account types in the Identity provider groups. Unless otherwise specified as administrators in your Identity provider groups, all users will be created as standard users by default.
