Field notes from a real GDAP migration: a seven-step checklist, the security group and PIM structure that worked, and answers on customer emails, competencies, Azure access, and distributors.
App registrations ride on DAP pre-consent. When DAP relationships disappear in early 2023, vendor integrations like IT Glue, CIPP, and HaloPSA stop reading customer tenants until re-consented.
Two ways to bulk-migrate DAP to GDAP before the deadline: Microsoft's CSV-driven CLI gives granular control, CIPP's built-in wizard gives speed. Here is how to pick, with a demo of both.
June 2022 for MSPs: Temporary Access Pass reaches GA for passwordless onboarding, Microsoft walks back the July 11 legacy CSP renewal block, and Teams ships seven features.
March 2022 for MSPs: combined MFA and SSPR registration becomes the default, NCE cancellations stretch to 7 days, nonprofit SKUs get a price bump, and dynamic distribution groups go modern.
Pair Azure AD PIM with GDAP security groups and your techs activate customer access for a few hours instead of holding it forever. The full 2022-era setup, screenshot by screenshot.
GDAP forces a question DAP never asked: which Azure AD roles do your techs actually need per customer? A practical baseline, the architecture behind it, and what to do about Global Admin.
February 2022 for MSPs: internet VBA macros get blocked by default, Teams previews shared channels on B2B direct connect, coterminosity heads to the NCE sandbox, and AAD Connect versions retire.
Microsoft released GDAP for M365 workloads in January 2022. This walkthrough covers requesting the relationship, customer approval, and the security group step most MSPs miss.
December 2021 for MSPs: DAP monitoring and self-service removal go live, GDAP hits technical preview for January 2022, SMTP DANE comes to Exchange Online, and Teams quiets its activity feed.
November 2021 for MSPs: Defender for Business lands in Business Premium at no extra cost, NCE promos slip to January 2022, GDAP is announced, and CSP partners get Azure AD P2 free.
GDAP replaces permanent Global Admin access to every customer tenant with granular, time-bound roles. Here is what changes for MSPs, announced November 2021.
