MicrosoftSo as a consultant for several healthcare organisations I was hoping to try this out, hoping to show the concepts. Although I'm admin on several Azure tenants, I first need to prove this as a concept and ran into all kinds of issues. I thought to possibly help other providers out based on this Microsoft initiative.
- I created a new Azure tenant, and have an admin account there, that worked.
- I did take Microsoft up on the free teams site offer in context of Covid-19, that worked.
- I went to https://lookbook.microsoft.com/ and tried to connect it and I get: Selected user account does not exist in tenant 'Microsoft' and cannot access the application '5d9fff84-5b34-4204-bc91-3aaf5f298c5d' in that tenant. The account needs to be added as an external user in the tenant first. Please use a different account. I'm not sure if it is the https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/blog/2020/03/05/our-commitment-to-customers-during-covid-19/ teams setting that is not compatible with the Crisis Communications offer?
- I then created a different account in Azure, did not help.
- I then tried to follow the offer on free E1 licenses for 6 months, but that is stuck on needing a Microsoft rep involved, no idea how that would work.
- I then Then I went to the "office" side and don't seem to be able to add licenses as I can on other tenants.
How can someone who does not have an Office/Azure tenant yet get this going correctly? And is there a way to do this without the bottleneck of creating a personal relationship with an micrsoft partner or reseller or rep? The latter is just a showstopper as phone calls go no-where.
