Eric,
Are you creating the user account in on-premises Active Directory and then adding a license to the user in the cloud, or is this a 100% pure cloud only identity?
If it is an on-premises AD user that is synced to the cloud, there is a community script that was written that can send the email as part of the new account creation process, reference is here: https://community.spiceworks.com/scripts/show/3188-office-365-user-creation

Hi Joe , thanks for your fast reply. It's indeed an on-premise AD user that we sync to the cloud. The script you reference creates an account and at the end sends an email to the new user.
For different reasons we're using the admin interface to create our AD users.
Would it be possible to trigger/fire the script after the users are created ?
In the script we would then only the mail send code.
For different reasons we've a delay between the creation of the user, availability of the mail box and O365 license activation/assignment.
Would it be possible to trigger the script after assigning the O365 license?
