Can we assign Admin roles in our B2C directory to cloud-native accounts in our Azure AD (without email addresses)?

We have: 1) standard Azure AD tenancy, 2) B2C directory

In 1), all our Admin roles are restricted to native member accounts. These are all in the form of ******@xxxxxx.onmicrosoft.com - therefore they dont have legitimate email addresses.

For 2), we want to give admin control to the same accounts as at 1) but there is no way to invite the accounts in as Guest users bcos they have no valid email.

Can we workaround this, or are we missing something?

    Hi @Padraig Denihan , one possible workaround is to create new admin accounts with valid email addresses in your B2C directory and assign the necessary roles to them. You can then use these new accounts to manage your B2C directory. Have you tried this?
