I'm trying to figure out if it is possible to use Azure AD as an identity provider for Elastic Workspace search.

Currently I've followed this blog: [Elasticsearch (elastic cloud) SSO with Azure AD | by Rajat Panwar | Medium](https://medium.com/@rajat-panwar/elastic-cloud-sso-with-azure-ad-76d0dd1e3319) and managed to allow authentication via azureAD.

Now I'm trying to figure out how the document level permissions would work in this case. Looking at this: [Managing document access & permissions for content sources | Workplace Search Guide [8.4] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/workplace-search/current/workplace-search-sources-document-permissions.html#sources-permissions-microsoft) I can't really figure out what matches these user attributes needed for configuring these permissions. Is it possible to have document level permissions in combination with a federated identity provider?
