cannot find "Enable Email Sign-In

Question

Need to enable Email Sign-In under Authentication Methods, but the option is missing

Answer 1

Thank you for posting this in Microsoft Q&A.

I understand that you're unable to find the Email option under authentication methods.

The Email option under authentication methods is only used for Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR). Email cannot be used for authentication.

For more information: authentication and verification methods are available in Microsoft Entra ID

Could you please check if the email option is selected for password reset in your tenant? If you enable the email option, users will be able to see it.

If the above is not your scenario and you're looking for the email option as a sign-in method, please refer to the document: Use email to sign in
