How to add or remove members from a group that you own in Entra ID

This guide is intended for anyone that has been added as an owner to a group in Entra ID (formerly Azure AD).  Group owners have the ability to add or remove members from the groups that they own.  By adding a user to your single sign on group, you are granting them the ability to log into the application.  Subsequently by removing a user from your group, you are removing their access to the application.

*If you need to add a large number of users please skip to the bottom of the page

• Open your preferred browser and navigate to myaccount.microsoft.com/groups/groups-i-own
• Click on the name of the group that you want to manage.  (All Single sign on groups will begin with the prefix SSO-)

• In the menu that opens select "Members" 

• Click the "Add" button

• Type the users first and last name, or NID and then click the user when they appear

• The user will be added as a member by default (If desired, use the drop down to make them an owner).  Click Add at the bottom

• Your user will now be listed at the bottom of the users for this group

• The user is now a member of your group and has been granted access to your application
• To remove a user, click the X Remove icon after their name

*Adding a large number of users

If you need to add a large number of users at the same time, please create an excel file with the full NID of each user (NID@UCF.EDU) and contact the Identity Management team for assistance.
