- Hello,
I am not sure the rule you mentioned works entirely: as an external user granted with global reader role, I was still able to enter the SharePoint admin center. I think this is due to the fact that there is a uniquely identifying URL available (tenantname.admin.sharepoint.com) for each tenant.
I think this is not caused by credentials or user type, but with a limitation in the admin centers that are reached through a unified url (e.g., admin.microsoft.com). You get pushed out of the site without ever being given the opportunity to switch tenant.
I was hoping for a way to specify the tenant in the url (e.g., "?tenant=<guid>" or ?tid=<guid>"), like when you log in through PowerShell, but could not find one that works.
