class ProvisioningServicePrincipal

Maturity: 35

A class representing a service principal identity used for provisioning operations in Microsoft Office 365 directory services.

Purpose

This class extends the Identity base class to specifically represent service principals that are used for provisioning purposes in Office 365 directory operations. Service principals are non-human identities (applications or services) that can be granted permissions to perform automated provisioning tasks. This class provides a specialized type for working with provisioning-related service principal identities in the Microsoft Graph API or Office 365 directory context.

Source Code

class ProvisioningServicePrincipal(Identity):
    """Represents the service principal used for provisioning."""

Parameters

Name Type Default Kind
bases Identity -

Parameter Details

__init__: Inherits constructor parameters from the Identity base class. The specific parameters depend on the Identity class implementation, but typically include identity-related properties such as id, displayName, and other identity attributes.

Return Value

Instantiation returns a ProvisioningServicePrincipal object that represents a service principal identity. This object inherits all methods and properties from the Identity base class and can be used wherever an Identity object is expected, with the semantic meaning that it specifically represents a provisioning service principal.

Class Interface

Dependencies

  • office365

Required Imports

from office365.directory.permissions.identity import Identity
from office365.directory.provisioning.service_principal import ProvisioningServicePrincipal

Usage Example

from office365.directory.provisioning.service_principal import ProvisioningServicePrincipal
from office365.directory.permissions.identity import Identity

# Instantiate a provisioning service principal
# Note: Actual instantiation depends on Identity base class constructor
service_principal = ProvisioningServicePrincipal()

# The object can be used in provisioning contexts where service principal identity is required
# Specific usage depends on the methods inherited from Identity class
# Example: setting properties or using in API calls
# service_principal.id = 'sp-12345'
# service_principal.displayName = 'Provisioning Service Principal'

Best Practices

  • This class is a specialized type marker that extends Identity for semantic clarity when working with provisioning service principals
  • Use this class when you need to explicitly represent a service principal used for provisioning operations, rather than a generic Identity
  • Ensure proper authentication and authorization are configured before attempting to work with service principal objects
  • The class inherits all functionality from Identity, so refer to Identity class documentation for available methods and properties
  • Service principals should be managed with appropriate security controls and least-privilege principles
  • When instantiating, follow the same patterns as the Identity base class
