Azure AD B2B Collaboration is Generally Available Worldwide!

I’m excited to let you know that Azure AD business-to-business (B2B) collaboration is generally available worldwide!

 

Azure AD B2B collaboration capabilities enable any organization using Azure AD to work safely and securely with users from any other organization, small or large, with or without Azure AD, & with or without an IT organization.

 

Organizations using Azure AD can provide their B2B partners access to documents, resources, and applications while maintaining control over corporate data. Developers can use the Azure AD B2B APIs to write applications that bring two organizations together in a secure way that is also seamless and intuitive for end users to navigate.

 

 

Read more about it on the Enterprise Mobility and Security Blog. 

  • This is awesome news!

     

    My company was using the feature in Preview, and we noted a bug which meant that there were problems with email if the B2B invited user was already presented in your O365 tenant as a Contact.

     

    Do we know if this issue is now resolved?

     

    Thanks

    Joe

      Yes this was resolved several weeks ago. Currently - such users cannot access Office 365 groups - but the team is fixing that too and we'll announce as soon as that's done.

      In the meantime, Azure AD and SPO scenarios should all work without any changes from the customer side.
