Entra Connect Sync 2.5.79 released
Hi All,
Two days ago, Microsoft has released a new Version of Entra Connect Sync.
It’s only downloadable via the Microsoft Entra Admin Center
Download
Download is only availabel in Entra Admin Portal and is now not as hidden anymore
Entra Admin Center > Identity > Entra Connect > Entra Connect Sync Download the latest Entra Connect Sync Version
If you click on the Download Link you have to click on the “Accept terms & download” Button. It will download AzureAdConnect.msi 😂
Another missed chance to rename the Downloaded File 😉
Upgrade
After downloading the AzureAdConnect.msi you need to run it
Now you need to Sign-In with the “Hybrid Identity Administrator” or “Global Administrator” Role
Sign-In and response to the MFA Challenge
Now you are ready to upgrade
Successfully updated
Checks
Let’s check the Version after the Installation
(Get-Item "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Azure AD Sync\Bin\miiserver.exe").VersionInfo
Check Entra
It takes a while to update the Version Number in Entra
Let’s check also with PowerShell
Connect-MgGraph -Scope OnPremDirectorySynchronization.Read.All -NoWelcome
$Sync = Get-MgBetaDirectoryOnPremiseSynchronization
$sync.Configuration.CurrentExportData.ServiceAccount
$Sync.Configuration.SynchronizationClientVersion
