The Azure Active Directory Group Expansion component allows the user to request and cache all the group members inside Windows Azure AD. The object of this component is to support group expansion for the Office 365 connectors, such as SharePoint Online and OneDrive.
NOTENote: This component will only extract the Azure Groups (cloud groups) and their members, since users and user memberships inside each Office 365 Application (SharePoint Online, OneDrive or Exchange) will be handled by the connectors and data from the Azure AD will be merged to the connector results. Active Directory group expansion should be handled by the LDAP Cache Component.
