Microsoft Entra agent identity and action authority

Evaluate account-disable authority at the API, using verified token facts and task evidence.

01 / Principal and identity

Who acts, and what can the platform identify?

An Entra agent identity can represent an agent; a user or owner supplies accountable context.

Tokens and agent identity establish caller and audience, subject to deployment configuration.

Delegation constraint

An agent identity must not imply the agent may use every permission of its sponsor.

03 / Worked denial

Test a request outside the grant.

An incident agent presents a valid token but targets a user outside its case.

Adversarial verification

Present a valid Entra agent token for an account-disable request outside the assigned incident. Confirm token authentication succeeds but the account API denies the target.

04 / Review and responsibility

What should the audit trail prove?

Token issuer/audience validation, agent ID, case, target, decision and account state.

Identity is an input to authority; this page does not assert a ProofGrid–Entra integration.
