Cannot access Certification Dashboard – redirected to Learn profile

Question

Hello,

I cannot access the Microsoft Certification Dashboard.

Every time I try to sign in through Pearson VUE (Continue to log in → Microsoft),

I am redirected back to my Microsoft Learn profile page instead of the Certification Dashboard.

It seems that my Certification Profile (MCID) has not been created or is not linked to my Microsoft account.

Could you please manually create or link my Certification Profile to my Microsoft account?

I have the MB-800 exam scheduled for the 17th of next week, and due to this issue I am unable to proceed with the system test.　I would be grateful if you could give me a prompt reply.

Microsoft account email: <Mod remove PII> @gmail.com

Thank you for your assistance.

Manual creation or linking of a Certification Profile (MCID) to a Microsoft account cannot be done through this channel. Issues where sign-in from Pearson VUE redirects back to the Microsoft Learn profile or where the Certification Dashboard/Certification Profile is missing must be handled by Microsoft Credentials Support.

Take these actions as soon as possible before the MB-800 exam date:

1. Confirm the correct Learn account
   • Sign out of all Microsoft accounts in the browser.
   • Open a new InPrivate/Incognito window.
   • Sign in to Microsoft Learn with the Microsoft account intended for certification.
   • Go to the Learn profile → Certifications and verify this is the account used when scheduling the MB-800 exam.
2. Try accessing certifications from Learn
   • From the Learn profile, select Certifications.
   • If the page does not show certification details or upcoming appointments, or continues to loop back to the profile, this indicates a profile/linking issue that must be fixed by support.
3. Contact Microsoft Credentials Support
   • Open a case with Microsoft Credentials Support and describe:
     • That sign-in from Pearson VUE → Microsoft redirects only to the Learn profile.
     • That the Certification Dashboard/Certification Profile (MCID) appears missing or not linked.
     • That an MB-800 exam is already scheduled and a system test is required.
   • Support can investigate the account, create or repair the Certification Profile, and ensure it is correctly linked to the Microsoft account used for exam registration.

If access to the Learn profile itself fails or loops, follow the guidance in the online exam article (using an InPrivate/Incognito browser and then opening a case with Credentials Support) so that a moderator/support agent can assist.
