Azure Sentinel office 365 Tenant Permissions

Question

Hello
Thanks for reading my post
Hopefully, this is simple to sort out but I seem to be going around in circles
setting up a test office 365 and Azure environment - things seem to go well until I ran into this issue
following along this guide connect-office-365 Seem to hit an issue doing this step
From the Data connectors gallery, select Office 365, and then select Open connector page on the preview pane. I fail the prerequisites Tenant Permissions: required 'Global Administrator' or 'Security Administrator' on the workspace's tenant. But I only have one single account that is 'Global Administrator' in my Azure Active Directory and listed as 'Global Administrator' in Azure
I am not sure what I have not setup -Anyone seen this before

Thank you for your post!

Based off your error message and the pre-requisites, can you make sure that you're either a Global Admin or Security Admin within your Tenant.

Error message:
Tenant Permissions: required 'Global Administrator' or 'Security Administrator' on the workspace's tenant.

Next Steps:

1. Navigate to the Azure Portal - https://portal.azure.com/
2. Confirm you're in the Tenant that is hosting your Azure Sentinel Workspace
   
3. Search for Azure Active Directory
   
4. Select Users -> Choose your user -> Select "Assigned Roles" -> Confirm that your user is a Global Admin of that tenant.
   

If you're still running into issues or have any other questions, please let me know.
Thank you for your time and patience throughout this issue.

Hi @Thomas Black

Just a hint in my mind , while I check for other things..

PRE REQ says:

• Workspace: read and write permissions are required.
• Tenant Permissions: required ‘Global Administrator’ or ‘Security Administrator’ on the workspace’s tenant.
• License:Office 365 ATP Plan 2 --You are setting up *Test * so your plan ?

Answer 4

Hello
I have sign-out and confirmed that I am global admin in 0365 admin centre
I have also tried incognito/private mode
Most only have one tenant - liked Azure to my 0365

Answer 5

An update
I created a secondary account for my test environment and it worked
so the issue is something to do with the original account
Not sure what to do next
