Yarken offers a streamlined solution for user management and secure access control that empowers administrators to manage user access efficiently, whether directly within the application or through seamless integration with Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD).
By leveraging OpenID Connect (OIDC) for authentication and integrating Microsoft Entra ID Single Sign-On (SSO), Yarken ensures that your organization benefits from secure, reliable, and easy-to-manage user authentication, keeping your data safe while simplifying access for users.

Before you begin
Before starting the onboarding process, ensure the following prerequisites are available:
-
An active Azure subscription
-
A Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) tenant
-
A user with one of the following Azure roles:
-
Global Administrator
-
Application Administrator
-
These permissions are required to approve consent requests and configure enterprise application access.
Initial Yarken administrator setup
The onboarding process starts with the first administrator from your organization.
To provision your Yarken environment, the Yarken onboarding or support team requires:
-
The administrator’s full name
-
The administrator’s email address
Once received, Yarken provisions the tenant environment and sends a Microsoft consent invitation link to the designated administrator.
Step 1 — Review and approve the consent request
The tenant administrator receives a Microsoft consent request by email.
The administrator should:
-
Open the invitation link
-
Review the requested permissions
-
Approve the consent request
-
Complete Microsoft authentication
Once access is granted, the administrator is redirected automatically to the Yarken application.
Step 2 — Access tenant settings
After signing in, the administrator can review tenant-level configuration settings.
Navigate to Admin → Settings → Tenants
The Tenants section allows administrators to manage:
-
Organization domain access
-
Invite-only onboarding
-
Azure AD integration
-
Tenant configuration settings
This becomes the control center for access governance within your organization.
