Microsoft Entra ID Permissions for Citrix Cloud™ Japan
This article describes the permissions that Citrix Cloud Japan requests when connecting and using Microsoft Entra ID (AD). Depending on how Microsoft Entra ID is used with the Citrix Cloud Japan account, one or more enterprise applications might be created in the target Microsoft Entra ID tenant. You can connect multiple Citrix Cloud Japan accounts to one Microsoft Entra ID tenant and use the same enterprise applications, without creating a set of applications for each account.
Note:
As of April 2022, the Microsoft Entra ID app that Citrix Cloud Japan uses to connect your Microsoft Entra ID was updated to use the GroupMember.Read.All permission instead of the Group.Read.All permission. If you have an existing Microsoft Entra ID connection (before April 2022) and you want the app to use the new permission, you must disconnect and then reconnect your Microsoft Entra ID to Citrix Cloud Japan. This action ensures your account is using the latest Microsoft Entra ID app in Citrix Cloud Japan. For more information, see Reconnect to Microsoft Entra ID for the updated app.
If you choose not to update the app, your existing connection still functions normally.

Permissions
The permissions in Citrix Cloud Japan’s enterprise applications allow Citrix Cloud Japan to access certain data in your Microsoft Entra ID tenant. Citrix Cloud Japan uses these data to perform specific functions such as connecting to your Microsoft Entra ID tenant and enabling administrators to sign in to Citrix Cloud Japan using a dedicated sign-in URL. Citrix Cloud Japan can only access these data with your consent. These permissions represent the least amount of privilege that Citrix Cloud Japan needs to function with your Microsoft Entra ID. For more information about Microsoft Entra ID permissions and consent, see Permissions and consent in the Microsoft identity platform on the Microsoft Azure documentation web site.
In this article, each set of Microsoft Entra ID application permissions includes the following information:
- API Name: The resource applications from which Citrix Cloud Japan requests permissions. These applications are Microsoft Graph and Windows Microsoft Entra ID. Citrix Cloud Japan requests the same permissions from both of these resource applications.
-
Type: The levels of access that Citrix Cloud Japan requests for a given permission. Permissions in a given enterprise application can have one of the following access levels:
- Delegated permissions are used to act on behalf of a signed-in user, such as when querying the profile of the user.
- Application permissions are used when the application performs an action without the user’s presence, such as querying users within a particular group. This permission type requires consent of a Global Administrator in Microsoft Entra ID.
-
Claim Value: The string of information that Microsoft Entra ID assigns to a given permission. Permissions in a given enterprise application can have one of the following claim values:
- User.Read: Allows Citrix Cloud Japan administrators to add users from the connected Microsoft Entra ID as administrators on the Citrix Cloud Japan account.
-
User.ReadBasic.All: Gathers basic info from the user’s profile. This is a subset of
User.Read.Allbut the permission itself remains for backwards compatibility. -
User.Read.All: Citrix Cloud Japan calls List users in Microsoft Graph to enable browsing and selection of users from the customer’s connected Microsoft Entra ID. For example, users from Microsoft Entra ID can be given access to a Citrix DaaS resource with the workspace. Citrix Cloud Japan can’t use
User.ReadBasic.Allas Citrix Cloud Japan needs to access properties outside of the basic profile such asonPremisesSecurityIdentifier. - GroupMember.Read.All: Citrix Cloud Japan calls List groups in Microsoft Graph to allow browsing and selection of groups from the customer’s connected Microsoft Entra ID. For example, groups from Microsoft Entra ID can also be granted access to Citrix DaaS applications.
