Hardware programme Active and Authorized but dashboard says account deactivated — support catch-22
Our company’s Windows Hardware Developer Program enrollment appears to be stuck in an inconsistent backend state. Current status: Developer Legal Business Profile vetting: Authorized Hardware programme: Active EV code-signing certificate: Active Correct Microsoft Entra tenant linked Windows publisher ID assigned Signed-in user is a Global Administrator No outstanding verification action or “Fix now” option is displayed However, opening the Hardware Dashboard returns: “Access restricted. We’re sorry, you don’t have permission to access this page because your Partner Center account has been deactivated.” This creates a support catch-22. The authenticated Help + support workflow requires a workspace selection, but no Hardware workspace is available because Hardware Dashboard access is deactivated. Following Microsoft’s guidance for users who cannot access an enrolled Hardware account, we submitted the external “Provide issue details” form. A support request number was issued, but we have received only the automated confirmation. Because the request was created outside the authenticated Partner Center workflow, it is not visible under My requests or Organization requests. We need access only to submit two company-internal Windows network-driver packages for Microsoft attestation signing. We are not requesting Windows Update distribution. Could a Microsoft community manager please help route the existing support request to the Hardware Developer Program enrollment/provisioning team? The support-request number, correlation ID, Seller ID, User ID and screenshots can be provided privately. Please check whether the Hardware workspace requires backend reinstatement or reprovisioning. All visible company verification and certificate checks are already complete.Partner Center Dashboard Access Issue
Hi all, I'm getting some reports that some of you who previously had access to Partner Center and the TSP Dashboard suddenly lost access in the last couple week. If this is you, can you please send me a direct message with a screen shot of what you're seeing, as well as the email address you're using to log into the site and your Microsoft Partner ID number. Please do not post that information as a reply to this thread. Please send directly to me DanDonohue. Thank you.

Watch this short video to learn the role of channel partners in the multiparty private offer process, including providing required Marketplace and customer information, reviewing pending partner actions in Partner Center, applying eligible pricing adjustments, adding custom terms or supporting documents, and submitting the offer for customer review.

Check out this short video that compares the capabilities of SaaS offers, Container offers, and Azure managed applications to understand which model best aligns with your architecture, deployment requirements, and customer needs.
new partner tenant - price sheet API calls don't work
I work for a CSP direct partner with multiple tenants. We're currently setting up a Netherlands tenant, and I can't manage to make calls to retrieve price sheets. I think the underlying issue is that this tenant is missing the enterprise app for "Microsoft Partner" (ID 4990cffe-04e8-4e8b-808a-1175604b879f), so I can't add a permission for it to my app registration. Any clue how I can add it? Do I have to open a support ticket or can I do it myself? It's present in our other tenants (US, Ireland, etc.). Price sheet API docs: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/partner-center/developer/get-a-price-sheetSeller verification Rejected at Employment step — no email received, no appeal (ID 94611890)
Our Partner (MAICPP) verification completed successfully on 31 Aug 2026 — contact, identity (Verified ID) and business all Verified (Partner ID 7113511, DIGITAL QAZAQSTAN LTD, UK company no. 17178943). The Developer/seller verification for the same legal entity (Seller ID 94611890) is closed as "Rejected — no appeals available", stuck at "Employment Verification — Pending Partner Action" with an estimated date of 06.09.2026 still showing. No verification email or action request was ever received at the primary contact (monitored, junk folder included), and the closed page shows no Fix now / appeal / upload control. Root cause we identified: the seller profile contained an outdated registered address. It has been corrected and now matches Companies House exactly (Office 393, Unit 5, 399-405 Oxford Street, Mayfair, London W1C 2BU). Business verification documents show "Provided". A fully prepared transactable professional service offer is blocked from publication only by this verification. Could a Community Manager please escalate this to the Partner Vetting team to reopen or reinitiate the seller verification?

Greetings partners, fellows, and friends, Standards Core is a 2nd year ISV - we currently have 1 SaaS and 2 Office add-in listings, now working on our first Apps and agents for Microsoft 365 and Copilot ... we have submitted our first publish, can currently working to address certification details. Why am I posting this? Well, after the 1st submission, in addition to the certification report on Marketplace, we also received an email - thereafter questions/iterations were immediately interactive with very quick and clearly attentive responses. So I wanted to mention that we really appreciate that!! Previous submissions that I have experienced were through the submissions portal only - the personalized email interaction was a pleasant surprise, and made the process feel much warmer than the previous "formal" portal-only interaction. Thank you [certification team], and looking forward to re-submit shortly. Thanks again, Leon, CTO/Standards Core LLCLearn how to move co-sell opportunities from ready to closed-won with greater consistency

Add to your calendar: Microsoft co-sell playbook: From co-sell ready to closed-wonThe AI Trust Gap: We're Auditing Outputs, But Nobody's Watching the Input
Hi all, Manjish here, founder of Pryvasee.AI. I want to open a conversation rather than make a pitch, because I think this is a problem bigger than any one company can solve, and I'd like to hear how others in this community are approaching it. Over the past year, watching enterprises adopt LLMs like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, etc one pattern kept showing up. Almost every governance conversation started after the prompt was sent. Teams were building dashboards to review AI outputs, running periodic audits, writing acceptable use policies. All useful, but all reactive. Nobody I spoke to had a clear answer to a much simpler question: what actually happens to the sensitive data in that prompt in the moments before it leaves your organisation's control? That gap is why we built Pryvasee.AI differently. Instead of sitting after the model and reviewing what came back, we sit before it. Pryvasee Guard screens prompts, documents, and images for PII, PHI, and PCI and other such sensitive data before anything reaches a model. Pryvasee Thread lets you run the same request across OpenAI, Gemini, Grok, and DeepSeek from one interface, so you're never trusting a single model's answer by default. And the Trust Engine scores every response that comes back for groundedness and hallucination risk, so there's a number behind "does this look right" instead of a gut feeling. We built it natively on Azure (AKS, Azure SQL, Azure SQL Ledger for a tamper evident audit trail) because we think the next wave of AI governance problems won't just be about data leakage. They will be about proving, after the fact, exactly what happened, for a regulator, an auditor, or your own board. Most organisations can't do that today for a single AI interaction, let alone thousands a day across four different model providers. We're early. MVP/Beta since July 2026, live on the Microsoft Commercial Marketplace since late August, and currently working through a handful of enterprise pilots rather than claiming a long customer list. I would rather be upfront about that than oversell it. What I'm genuinely curious about: for those of you building or advising on enterprise AI adoption, is anyone handling the "before the model" problem today, whether with tooling, policy, or something else? And do you think this becomes a bigger issue as more employees start using multiple AI tools side by side, or does it resolve itself as the big model providers add more guardrails natively? Would love to hear how others are thinking about this.Employment Verification appeal (Resolve) panel does not render upload option
Partner ID: 7001033 Company: Conligo Services B.V. Account: Microsoft AI Cloud Partner Program, Developer track Issue: Legal Business Profile Verification is stuck at Employment Verification (status: Rejected / Pending Partner Action). Following the official appeal process (Legal Info → Verification Summary → Resolve), the panel that opens does not match Microsoft's own documented behavior. Expected behavior (per Microsoft's official documentation, "Submit a verification appeal in Partner Center," step 6): the Resolve panel should show a "Select document type" dropdown, a drag-and-drop file upload field, and an optional comments field. Actual behavior: the panel only displays a static message — "Your document was submitted successfully. Review can take up to 5 business days." — with no document type selector, no upload field, and no functional control of any kind. Troubleshooting already performed: Reproduced in multiple browsers (including a fresh anonymous/private session, tested independently, ~30 minutes apart) Reproduced after waiting to rule out temporary state/cache issues Confirmed the Verification Started, Email Verification, and Identity Verification steps all show as passed (green checkmark); only Employment Verification is affected Confirmed via KvK (Dutch Chamber of Commerce) extracts that I am the authorized representative (director of Ubertas Holding B.V., which is the sole director of Conligo Services B.V.) Documents ready to submit once the upload field is functional: KvK extract, Conligo Services B.V. (KvK 77027965) KvK extract, Ubertas Holding B.V. (KvK 76957292) Domain ownership documentation for conligo.nl (WHOIS/registrar confirmation) Request: please either fix the rendering issue on my account, or provide an alternative channel to submit the above documents for the Employment Verification appeal.
