I'm facing an error that says "Sync errors detected on your Microsoft Entra Connect service." When I try to look at the "Sync Error Report," it just shows me an "Object GUID" without any further details. The only message I'm getting is 'DeletingCloudOnlyObjectNotAllowed.' Running the "Synchronization Service" shows no flow errors. How can I figure out what's causing this error?

You can check the Azure Admin Portal and look for "Microsoft Entra Connect Health" to find detailed sync errors. It helps a lot when you have problematic attribute sync issues, but I get your frustration if it’s not showing enough info. It’s supposed to give more context than what you're seeing.
I had a similar issue when a user was deleted from the on-prem directory and then restored from the deleted users in Entra, but before the next AAD sync ran. The sync was trying to delete that now cloud-only object and failing. The fix was to delete the object again, let two delta syncs complete, and then restore it from Entra. It’s basically a sync daemon glitch, so watch out for that!
