Igloo Org Chart integration - Azure AD list view

The Igloo Org Chart integration widget provides a portal into your Azure Active Directory where you can view the managers and direct reports of the members of your company.

When a user clicks the ellipses in the top right corner of a profile card, the widget provides contact information for members of their Azure AD, where available. This can include their position, phone number, email address, and address, as well as a "sip" message link that will open your native messaging service on your computer.

  1. In the widget's options, select Show Admin Login, save this change, and publish the page.
  2. Your organization's Global Admin for O365/Microsoft (not Igloo admin) needs to select Sign in as Microsoft Admin. The Global Admin will be prompted to authorize on behalf of their entire organization.
  3. Once the widget has been authorized, it no longer needs the Microsoft Admin sign-in link. You can turn it off by editing your page and widget again and deselecting Show Admin Login.
