Global Administrator - AAD Premium 1

Does a Global Administrator of an M365 tenant automatically have a AAD Premium 1 license assigned? is this possible without purchasing any EMS or E5 or AAD Premium 1 license.

  • The answer is obviously No, being an Admin in Office 365 does not grant any kind of license...you need to have it and assign to your admins as happens with any other user

      jcgonzalezmartin - In our tenant, I am able to see that the Global Admin has been assigned this privilege, where as we have never purchased any kind of license for AAD PP1, attached below screenshot for your reference. am i missing something?

        If you see that the tenant is AAD P1, you must have some license with AAD P1 included: EMS, Microsoft 365, AAD p1..

    I don't really understand the question?
    If you need the capabilities of AAD P1 (for a global admin or for a regular user) you need to buy one
