Question

unable to figureout why there is more than one directory and tenant under my azure active directory

ArunRaaman 981

Hello There,

I recently started learning Azure Data Factory; as part of my learning process, I created Azure (free) account.

I created a azure devops account for git repository management; further tried to connect active directory from Organization Settings (within Azure DevOps/GitRepistory account). This is where I problem encountered with the error as shown in the screenshot below:

I browsed users in Azure Active Directory, where there is only one user with type:'member' (between member and guest) as shown in the screenshot below:

Next, I browsed into directories of 'Azure Active Directory', and I discovered additional tenant under 'manage tenant' within the 'Azure Active Directory ' (attached a screenshot of it). I believe, somewhere in this process, I created a tenant in my azure account. Following is the screenshot of 'Manage Tenant':

Also, under switch directory, I found two directories, which is again confusing (that can be understood from the screenshot below):

I believe, I messed up with some operations. I did some investigation over google and 'azure community', but failed to find a tip to understand it.

I tried to delete the tenant 'diwakarlearningca', but unable to do so (with error message: known issue exist where some enterprise applications are not capable to delete within the portal).

Would anyone help me understand the scenario?

Thank you for your time and efforts.

Hi Arun,
Your domains are defined under 'Custom Domains'. Do you have more than one entry in here?
As long as you've attached to the appropriate tenant and you can see your domain listed, and you're a global admin or appropriate role for adding guest users, it should work.
I'd suggest starting from a private/incognito browser to be sure you're logging into your test tenant.

Thank you for giving your valuable time and efforts, David.

I checked the domain in 'Azure Active Directory' tab, here is what I got in it:

the number of users in AAD is as follows and the user type:

Further, as you mentioned to use Private /Incognito browser mode, I shall stick to this mode with all my further trails.

I shall delete the existing setup and try again with fresh configuration.

Thank you again for your time!

Thanks for checking over my concern, James

Unfortunately, could figure out the reason and solution; I guess, I have to learn certain level of Azure-Administration     skills to help myself during course of learning ADF and Data Bricks.

@ArunRaaman
Thank you for the quick follow up on this!

To hopefully help resolve your issue, from the Azure Portal within Azure Active Directory, can you create a new Global Admin user (i.e. NewUserName@diwakarlearningca.onmicrosoft.com). Once the user is created, can you sign into your Azure DevOps instance with that user and see if you can Connect your directory?

Since this issue is more related to Azure DevOps, I'd recommend reaching out to their experts as well through their Developer Community.

I hope this helps!

If you have any other questions, please let me know.
Thank you for your time and patience throughout this issue.

James, thanks for the follow-up on this question.

I am thinking to reach Azure DevOps /Admin team to help me resolve the issue; in fact, my objective of focus is towards exploring Azure Data Factory and Data Bricks. The way I connected to Azure DevOps repository from ADF Studio was a kind of tricky as well. I already went into digging information (related to Azure itself) which would more than needed at least at this stage for me.

Thank you again.
