This topic lists the attributes that are synchronized by Microsoft Entra Connect Sync.
The attributes are grouped by the related Microsoft Entra app.
A common question is what is the list of minimum attributes to synchronize. The default and recommended approach is to keep the default attributes so a full GAL (Global Address List) can be constructed in the cloud and to get all features in Microsoft 365 workloads. In some cases, there are some attributes that your organization does not want synchronized to the cloud since these attributes contain sensitive personal data, like in this example:

In this case, start with the list of attributes in this topic and identify those attributes that would contain personal data and cannot be synchronized. Then deselect those attributes during installation using Microsoft Entra app and attribute filtering.
Warning
When deselecting attributes, you should be cautious and only deselect those attributes absolutely not possible to synchronize. Unselecting other attributes might have a negative impact on features.

This group is a set of attributes used as the minimal attributes needed for a generic workload or application. It can be used for a workload not listed in another section or for a non-Microsoft app. It is explicitly used for the following:
- Yammer (only User is consumed)
- Hybrid Business-to-Business (B2B) cross-org collaboration scenarios offered by resources like SharePoint
This group is a set of attributes that can be used if the Microsoft Entra directory is not used to support Microsoft 365, Dynamics, or Intune. It has a small set of core attributes. Note that single sign-on or provisioning to some third-party applications requires configuring synchronization of attributes in addition to the attributes described here. Application requirements are described in the SaaS app tutorial for each application.

A Windows 10 domain-joined computer(device) synchronizes some attributes to Microsoft Entra ID. For more information on the scenarios, see Connect domain-joined devices to Microsoft Entra ID for Windows 10 experiences. These attributes always synchronize and Windows 10 does not appear as an app you can unselect. A Windows 10 domain-joined computer is identified by having the attribute userCertificate populated.

- When using an Alternate ID, the on-premises attribute userPrincipalName is synchronized with the Microsoft Entra attribute onPremisesUserPrincipalName. The Alternate ID attribute, for example mail, is synchronized with the Microsoft Entra attribute userPrincipalName.
- Although there is no enforcement of uniqueness on the Microsoft Entra onPremisesUserPrincipalName attribute, it is not supported to sync the same UserPrincipalName value to the Microsoft Entra onPremisesUserPrincipalName attribute for multiple different Microsoft Entra users.
- In the lists above, the object type User also applies to the object type iNetOrgPerson.
