How could I convert the account back to external user?
Thank you very much.
- Thank you very much.
However, there are no users except me and I have only one account.hello if you are the only user it maybe tricky now since to become external again, the account essentially needs to be disassociated from this tenant. However, as the sole user, removing yourself entirely would leave the tenant without an administrator, leading to potential management issues.
as a workaround
If possible, temporarily add another user to your Azure AD tenant and grant them Global Administrator privileges. This ensures someone can manage the tenant after you remove your own account.
Try this:
-
Remove the User from Azure AD:
- Sign in to the Azure portal as an administrator
- Navigate to Azure Active Directory > Users
- Find your user account and delete it
-
Reinvite as an External User:
- Go to Azure Active Directory > Users > New guest user
- Enter your details (name and email) and send the invitation
- Accept the invitation from your email to complete the process
- I was requested to repeat the login with another login and have choosen my mobile phone njumber.
After that, I have confirmed the request with my Microsoft Authenticator.

The account needs to be added as an external user in the tenant first. Sign out and sign in again with a different Azure Active Directory user account.
