Azure active directory user add issue

Question

Hello,

I created a Azure account using my work email. Once I created account, i see different user with Microsoft account from our organization in Active directory. Now I try to create new user but it doesn't let me create new user. I am not sure How i can make myself Admin. Or how do I find the user who has Admin access. I dont think anyone has Azure admin access as I am the only one who started exploring Azure. Uploaded the screen shot.

Hello @SHAH, Dhavalkumar

Thank you for reaching out. I understand that you would like to know who is the Global Admin on your companies Azure AD Tenant. I would request you to please follow below steps to get more details:

• Browse to Azure AD Admin Center or Azure Portal.
• Select Roles and Admin.
• Search and Select Global Administrator Role.
• You should be able to see the users with Global Admin Role.

Thank you for your queries, PFB answers in line:

• Once I created account, I see different user with Microsoft account from our organization in Active directory.

This could have been if you would have invited the users as guest to your tenant.

Or if your work account (is associated with another Azure AD tenant probably your organizations tenant). Kindly validate by navigating to directories + subscriptions.

• I try to create new user but it doesn't let me create new user. I am not sure How i can make myself Admin. Or how do I find the user who has Admin access?

If you feel that the tenant does not have any one else as admin then follow Take over an unmanaged directory as administrator in Azure Active Directory for becoming the admin.

Please do let me know if you have any further queries.
