Azure / MS 365 B2B without guest users

Question

Hi,

we use two separate MS 365 / azure tenants for organisational reasons. When users in these two tenants want to work together in teams or sharepoint online, they are handled in both platforms as guests, named in teams "(external)". Besides the fact, that this is a litte impractical, it works technically and ensures that users in both tenants can work together in teams and sharepoint (Azure B2B).

Because end users don't get in touch with the construct behind MS 365, it often launches a discussion why they are handled as guests or named ("External") while working in the same company. Is there any option available (or planned by MS), how users in two separate tenants can work togethter without this guest / external naming and behavior?

Answer 1

It's either that, or create a separate user account for them in each tenant (or consider consolidating the tenants if possible). Going forward, the "native" federation model that powers Teams shared channels might be an option, but that's still in private preview, with public preview slated for next month: https://myignite.microsoft.com/sessions/cfcdfdfa-7401-414d-ab61-4e834281e7ae

HI @MSUser0815 ,

You can follow the link provided by michev.

These are collaboration chances between two tenants at this moment.
