Question

Difficulty: EasyUsers and Groups in Microsoft Entra ID

An organization requires a new Microsoft Entra ID group to support automatic membership updates whenever a user's office location or job title attribute is modified.

Which membership type should be selected during group creation to meet this requirement?

  1. A
    Assigned
  2. Dynamic UserAnswer
  3. C
    Dynamic Device
  4. D
    Administrative Unit

Answer

Dynamic User
Selecting the Dynamic User membership type allows the administrator to define rules based on user attributes (such as office location or job title) to automatically add or remove users from the group.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Analyze the requirement for automatic membership updates based on user attributes.
Determine that manual group assignment is not suitable and that a rule-based membership type is needed.
Manually assigning members does not scale and cannot react automatically to changes in user profile attributes.
2
Compare the rule-based membership options (Dynamic User and Dynamic Device) against the attribute requirements.
Identify that the requirements specify user attributes (office location and job title), which dictates using the Dynamic User membership type.
Dynamic Device groups evaluate device attributes, whereas Dynamic User groups evaluate user attributes to determine group membership.
