Sitecore Quick Start

If the Sitecore connector runs on a server that is different from the Sitecore server, the Security Policies of Sitecore may have to be adjusted. See Connection to the Sitecore ItemService REST API for details.

The Sitecore connector does not retrieve principal information from Sitecore directly. Instead, it is assumed that the Sitecore instance uses federated authentication with a Microsoft Azure AD identity provider. Thus, the connector retrieves user and group information from Azure AD. This requires setting up the connection to Azure AD. See Connection to Microsoft Azure for details.
