Do my Power Apps guest users need to sign up for MFA??

Geoff Crane 5

I just got a mail saying I need to enable MFA on my tenant by October 15, 2024. The reason I set up my tenant in the first place was to create a Power App for my clients (all of whom are external to me, but who pay me a fee for use that covers the license). I've got them set up with guest access, and everything is working fine. The set up process is a little ugly, but it's just a one time thing they have to go through, so they accept it. If I have to set up MFA, however, I'm worried the added burden will result in a mass exodus of folks from my app and a corresponding revenue hit.

So: Going forward, does Microsoft expect guest users to use MFA when accessing Power Platform resources, or do I need to quickly start looking for a new platform?

Er...it's not an error. I received the following e-mail from Microsoft. My question is, will I have to enforce MFA on my tenant's guest accounts?

Action required: Enable multifactor authentication for your tenant by 15 October 2024

You’re receiving this email because you’re a global administrator for XXXXX

Starting 15 October 2024, we will require users to use multifactor authentication (MFA) to sign into the Azure portal, Microsoft Entra admin center, and Intune admin center. To ensure your users maintain access, you’ll need to enable MFA by 15 October 2024. If you can’t enable MFA for your users by that date, you’ll need to apply to postpone the enforcement date. If you don’t, your users will be required to set up MFA.

Action required

To identify which users are signing into Azure with and without MFA, refer to our documentation.

To ensure your users can access the Azure portal, Microsoft Entra admin center, and Intune admin center, enable MFA for your users by 15 October 2024.

If you can’t enable MFA by 15 October 2024, apply to postpone the enforcement date.
