Question

Contoso wants all employees in the Sales department to automatically receive membership in a Microsoft 365 group that is used for group-based licensing. As people transfer into or out of Sales, their group membership—and therefore their license assignment—must update without any manual intervention. The Sales department value is stored in each user's Entra ID profile Department attribute. Which approach should you configure to meet these requirements?
