Hi there,

I have invited an external user to our azure tenant, since the user should help us to manage the whole tenant. I have added him as global administrator, but he can't see resources, VMs etc. The user can only see the Azure AD. Does the user need some specific rights or what would be the issue here?

Thanks and BR,

Benjamin

    Hi Benjamin Fellner,

    If a user is Global Administrator he can elevate his access to get all the subscriptions he need by changing the following option on Azure AD when they login.

    User's image

    Alternatively, you can provide on specific subscription access by navigating to Subscription> Access control > Add and provide Owner or Contributor

    User's image

    Please note: All roles mentioned above are High privillaged roles, assign them according to need.
