I would like to get a Microsoft 365 Developer subscription (E5). But is says my account is not eligible. My current company uses a lot of Microsoft products inhouse. I am currently working on a solution that needs to interact with the company SharePoint through the graph api. This however requires me to setup testdata which I rather not do in the company production SharePoint.

    Hi @Koen van Dijk,

    Thank you for posting in this community.

    The easiest way to start your developer journey with Microsoft 365 is to join the Microsoft 365 Developer Program.

    Joining the program is free and by becoming a member, you get a free Microsoft 365 Developer Tenant, a free-instant sandbox that comes with sample user licenses, sample content packs for Microsoft Teams, email and calendar and is pre-configured for development, so you can get started quickly.

    The tenant will renew every 90 days, so if you keep using it, it will be yours forever.

    If you have problems with the subscription process, look for solutions from this article: Microsoft 365 Developer Program FAQ.

    I have the same problem.

    I am connected to an active Visual Studio Enterprise (MPN) subscription.

    I still get this:

    "Thank you for joining. You don't current qualify for a Microsoft 365 Developer Program sandbox subscription."
