How to use Microsoft Login for Privacy login on help articles

Hi,

 

We are looking to make our Help Center articles mostly limited to just users. We have SSO setup with Entra/Azure and that works fine for access to the backend. 

Is there a way to leverage Microsoft for access to the Help Center articles so only users that are part of that group can access the articles as well?

Thank you!

Hey ​@JoNew Paul here from support engineering to help you out 🤝 

Yes you can restrict Help Center articles to only users in an Entra/Azure group. The pattern is:

1) enable Help Center Audience Targeting (requires a custom domain + cookie forwarding and Messenger for logged-in users),

 

2) ensure each user in Intercom has a marker (a custom attribute or tag) that indicates membership in your Entra group, and

 

3) create an article audience that matches that marker. You can populate that marker by (a) sending the group claim in your product’s Intercom boot/update, (b) provisioning users via SCIM and adding a small sync to tag group members, or (c) running a server sync that reads Microsoft Graph group membership and updates Intercom via the Users API.
