# SCA Configuration - AAD filters

### **SecContacts.AADFilters** <a href="#seccontacts.aadfilters" id="seccontacts.aadfilters"></a>

This setting is for customizing the querying parameters for AZURE AD contacts.

Secure Contacs App is querying **AZURE AD via directory.read.all** and **will use any AAD account as contact which contains at least an displayname and a bussiness or mobile phonenumber**.

Per default it ignores all "external AAD" accounts which have a UPN containing "#EXT#@" as well as the administrator account.

This is basically an "all in" with some default exceptions. With AADFilters you can extend these exceptions.

* Name: `SecContacts.AADFilters`
* Value: `[{"property":"<aad-property>", "operator":"<target-operator>", "value":"<target-value>"}]`

The Value property is a JSON Array of `property` `operator` `value` trio.\
You can add one or multiple filter here.

Replace **\<aad-property>** with the AAD property you want to for filter for

* e.g. `userPrincipalName` or `displayName`

Replace **\<target-operator>** with an operator

* e.g. `contains` or `equals` or `equalsAny`

Replace **\<target-value>** with the value you want to for filter for

* e.g. `administrator` or `johndoe` or `#EXT#@`

When using the `equalsAny` operator, provide a list of **target-values** as one single string with `;` as delimiter.

* e.g. `administrator;johndoe;someotheruser`

Currently only **userPrincipalName** and **displayName** are supported as **aad-property**.<br>
