I was wondering, lets say you, a global admin, ran a script and by mistake you locked all your AAD users out, including your global admins; how do you fix that?. Thanks.

    Hi @krtagena · Thank you for reaching out.

    The recommendation is to always keep break-glass admin account, by excluding one or more global admins so that you can revert the settings. However, if you forgot to keep a breakglass account, the only option is to open a support ticket and get data protection team engaged. After you provide evidence of your ownership of the tenant, they will unblock a Global Admin account for you.
