I am having problems accessing the Entra ID portal after the mandatory MFA rollout. I have tired to extend it through the Microsoft link (https://aka.ms/managemfaforazure) and through the Azure CLI (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/authentication/how-to-unlock-users-for-mandatory-multifactor-authentication) but neither has worked.

The worst part is that since I am not able to login to Entra I cannot submit a support ticket.

Has anyone ever run into this before? How can I get in contact with Azure support without going through heir ticketing system?

    Hello Sergio A,

    Please check with any of the Global admins in your tenant to revoke your current MFA sessions and again re-register for MFA for your user account by following the below steps:

    To manage user settings, please complete the following steps:

    1.Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least an Authentication Administrator.

    2.Browse to Identity > Users > All users.

    3.Choose the user you wish to perform an action on and select Authentication methods. At the top of the window, then choose "Revoke multifactor authentication sessions" and then select “Require re-register multifactor authentication” option for the affected user.

    Please refer to the below Screenshot for your reference.
