Unable to create a new E5 Developer subscription
Hi all!
I'm trying to apply for a free E5 Developer subscription, to try out an MS Teams apps and MS 365 add-ins development workflow, while my employer evaluates whether to get into the market.
I've joined the MS 365 Developer Program with my personal account, and they say, I should see a big blue "Set up E5 subscription" button on my dashboard.
The problem is - I have nothing in its place.
Does anybody know if this program is still continued? Maybe I did something wrong in configuring my account?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Andrey

I ran into the same issue with the missing "Set up E5 subscription" button. It seems Microsoft has temporarily paused new activations. While testing real-time communication features for MS Teams workflows, I explored multiple platforms with custom APIs. Interestingly, TM WhatsApp provided solid messaging architecture that aligned well with my prototype structure.

- the same problem here 😞
- Microsoft says "registration for the M365 DEV Subscription is currently closed". Please have a look at:

- ok i want to try
- i still same not " Thank you for joining. You don't current qualify for a Microsoft 365 Developer Program sandbox subscription." how can i get subscription?
- The free DEV subscription was a huge help. I guess it was also being 'abused' to an extend by a few and might be the reason why they have pulled the plug for the time being.
I had even documented the whole process with a view to help others.

Having the exact same problem!- Well, it seems, Microsoft has suspended an access to these subscriptions for some indefinite "short term".

We can only hope, this terms does prove itself short indeed.
