I am trying to sync an Active Directory with Microsoft Entra ID cloud sync. However, when I click "New configuration," the drop-down box to select the domain is greyed out. I am a licensed global admin, and the DC agent appears as live in the console. Also, the domain is DNS verified with 365. Can anyone suggest any solutions or reasons why this is happening?
