Why integrate?

Let the system you already trust do the work.

Creating Users manually, or periodically importing them from a spreadsheet, means your LMS is always playing catch-up. People join, get updated and leave every week, and your LMS should keep up without anyone updating details by hand. An integration does that work for you, so your training records stay accurate and your admins can focus on training, not data entry.

What you get with an Entra integration

Manage people once, in Entra. Training follows.

No double-keying user data

One source of truth

Every User in your Entra Group is created and kept up to date in Tribal Habits automatically.

Reports you can trust

Richer data, better reporting

Job title, department, office location, manager (including email) and extension attributes flow into Tribal Habits.

Remove manual effort

Fields that power enrolment

Enrolment rules in Tribal Habits can use any synced User field. When details change in Entra, Users are enrolled or unenrolled automatically.

Access updates from one location

Clean offboarding

When a User is disabled, deleted or removed from the Entra Group, they’re deactivated in Tribal Habits with their training history kept.

No extra passwords

Built to pair with SSO

We agree the username at kick-off so the sync and your Entra single sign-on line up from day one.

Nothing to build or maintain in-house

Managed for you

We build the integration, tailor it to your setup and look after it once it’s live.

GETTING STARTED

Go live in a few simple steps

Scoping call (30 min)

We agree which Entra Group to sync (an existing one, or a new one just for Tribal Habits) and which User fields to bring across.

We build and test

Your Entra admin does a little prep, and we set up and test your integration.

Set-up call (30–60 min)

We connect everything with your Entra admin and switch it on when you’re ready. From there, we look after it for you.

What you’ll need:
A Business 50 plan or above. The managed integration for most organisations is an annual add-on of $600 + GST, or $480 + GST for not-for-profits.

EXAMPLE USE CASE

How SGESCO-MAX gave staff and contractors one login and one source of truth

Industry

Heavy Vehicle & Fleet Safety

Connection

Entra ID sync & Entra SSO

Before

SGESCO-MAX's staff and external contractors all needed safety and induction training. Accounts were created by hand or uploaded from a CSV file every fortnight, so newly onboarded people often waited weeks to start, and access for recently departed contractors lingered.

The Connection

After establishing the Entra integration, SGESCO-MAX manages who’s in from Entra. Staff and contractors in the Entra Group arrive with their job title, department, office location and manager, and sign in with the same Microsoft login they use for everything else.

Now

Enrolment rules place newly onboarded employees and contractors straight into the induction for their role and site, so they start on day one with no files to email around, no classroom session to book and no one enrolling them by hand. Recently departed employees are deactivated automatically, and managers report compliance by site and department using mapped fields from Entra.

The integration just works away in the background – we’ve cut the time to get new users’ setup by half, allowing us to be more responsive to our customers

Frequently Asked Questions

Can synced User fields drive auto-enrolment?

Yes. Enrolment rules in Tribal Habits can use any field you sync from Entra. When a change in Entra means someone now matches, or no longer matches, a rule, they’re enrolled or unenrolled automatically, in near real time. The rules themselves live in Tribal Habits; the integration keeps the fields they rely on up to date.

Is this the same as using Entra for single sign-on?

No. The integration manages who is Active in Tribal Habits; Entra SSO handles how they sign in. They work best together, so we agree the username at kick-off to line them up.

Who gets synced?

Members of your Entra Group, including nested groups and contractors with accounts in your Entra tenant. If you need finer control, we can tailor who’s included beyond Group membership.

Does training data flow back to Entra?

No. Microsoft designed Entra as an identity directory, so it has nowhere to hold training records. Completions, certificates and progress stay in Tribal Habits, where your reporting lives.

How often does it sync?

It syncs regularly through the day, and we support custom sync schedules to match your internal business processes.

Does it still work if we call it Azure AD?

Yes. Microsoft renamed Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) to Microsoft Entra ID in 2023. Same service, same integration.
