Are your documentation permissions still managed manually?

Microsoft-first organizations need documentation access that respects Azure AD groups and security boundaries—without IT becoming a bottleneck for every access request.

Without Docsie

  • IT manually adds users to documentation portals, creating ticket backlogs and access delays
  • No visibility into who's actually accessing sensitive documentation or when
  • Documentation permissions drift from Azure AD groups, creating security gaps
  • Contractors and offboarded employees retain access because systems aren't synced
Recommended

With Docsie

  • Users automatically get the right documentation based on their existing Azure AD groups
  • Complete audit trail shows who accessed what documentation and when
  • Permissions stay in sync with your Azure AD—when someone leaves a group, access is revoked
  • Instantly revoke all documentation sessions when someone is offboarded

Why Docsie

Documentation Security That Respects Your Azure AD Investment

Stop managing documentation access separately from your identity system.

Leverage Existing Azure AD Groups

Your security teams already organize users into Azure AD groups. Docsie respects those groups automatically, so documentation access mirrors your existing security model. No duplicate user management, no permission drift, no manual syncing.

Meet Compliance Requirements Automatically

Auditors want to know who accessed what documentation and when. Docsie logs every documentation session with full traceability back to Azure AD identities. Generate reports that map documentation access to specific users, groups, and time periods without manual tracking.

Reduce Security Risk

When documentation permissions live outside your identity system, they become a blind spot. Docsie integrates with Azure AD so offboarded users lose access immediately, contractors only see what they need, and your security team has one less system to worry about during audits.

Real-World Use Cases

How Microsoft-first organizations use Azure AD-integrated documentation

Give External Partners Secure Access Without Creating Accounts
Partner & Vendor Management

Give External Partners Secure Access Without Creating Accounts

Your partners and consultants need product documentation, integration guides, and technical specs—but you don't want to create separate documentation accounts or share credentials. Map their Azure AD B2B identities or federated SSO to specific documentation sets based on which partner organization they represent.

  • Partners see only documentation relevant to their engagement
  • Automatically revoke access when contracts end
  • Track which vendors accessed which technical documentation
Restrict Sensitive Documentation by Department
Internal Knowledge Security

Restrict Sensitive Documentation by Department

Your HR team needs access to policy documentation, engineering needs technical specs, and finance needs compliance procedures—but these shouldn't be universally accessible. Route users to department-specific documentation automatically based on their Azure AD security groups, so nobody has to remember which portal to visit.

  • Engineering never accidentally sees HR policy drafts
  • Zero IT tickets for documentation access requests
  • Permissions automatically update when people change departments
Separate Documentation by Legal Entity
Multi-Subsidiary Organizations

Separate Documentation by Legal Entity

When your organization operates multiple legal entities or acquired companies, each subsidiary needs access to its own policies, procedures, and documentation—without seeing other entities' materials. Use Azure AD organizational attributes to automatically route users to their entity's documentation while maintaining centralized IT oversight.

  • Maintain legal separation between subsidiaries
  • Centralized audit trail across all entities
  • New acquisitions onboard in hours, not weeks

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything IT teams ask about Azure AD documentation integration

Getting Started

Most Popular

Q: How long does it take to connect Azure AD to Docsie?

A: Most organizations complete Azure AD integration in under an hour. You'll register Docsie as an enterprise application in your Azure portal, configure which groups or claims to use for routing, and map them to documentation sets. No code or complex configuration required.

Q: Do we need to migrate existing documentation users to Azure AD?

A: No migration needed. When users sign in through Azure AD SSO, Docsie automatically creates their profile and applies the right permissions based on their groups. Existing documentation remains exactly where it is.

Q: Can we test this with a small group before rolling out company-wide?

A: Absolutely. Most customers start with one department or one documentation set, verify the permissions work correctly, then gradually expand to other groups. You can run Azure AD authentication alongside existing access methods during testing.

Security & Compliance

Q: What happens if someone's Azure AD account is disabled or removed?

A: They immediately lose access to all documentation. Docsie checks Azure AD authentication in real-time, so disabled accounts can't sign in and existing sessions can be revoked instantly.

Q: Can we see who accessed specific documentation for audit purposes?

A: Yes. Docsie logs every documentation access with the user's Azure AD identity, timestamp, and session details. You can generate reports filtered by user, group, documentation set, or time period for audit requests or security investigations.
