Hi @Ishtiaque Ahmed CSEH Rafin • Thank you for reaching out.

It looks like you are looking for a way to identify the type of a tenant as a global administrator. Are you looking to achieve this via Portal access or in a programmatic fashion?

Please find the steps for accessing this information via the Entra Admin Portal and PowerShell below.

Using Entra Admin Portal:

• Log into the Entra Admin Portal with your Global Administrator account.
• Navigate to Identity -> Overview -> Manage Tenants.
• Use the Search Tenant search box to find a specific tenant by name or the filter button to filter all available tenants for either Workforce or External tenants.
• The resulting table view will show the type of the tenant under the Tenant Type column.

Using PowerShell:

• Install the Azure PowerShell Module
• Run Connect-AzAccount and log in with the Global Administrator Account
• Run Get-AzTenant | Select-Object -property Name, ID, TenantType to get a list of all tenants. Tenants identified as AAD are Workforce tenants and tenants identified as CIAM are External tenants
