Option to create sandbox unavailable - MS-500 Security Associate Admin Course
Good day,
I am trying to work through the Microsoft 365 Certified: Security Administrator Associate and hit a snag right at the first exercise. I am not being prompted to create a sandbox. When I use the Azure Active Directory link it does take me to portal.azure.com, and it shows me as signed in, but I do get an authentication error. Please see the attachments.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
- I'm a couple modules in and am seeing the same problem. It gives the points, but there is no way to actually do the exercises.
- You need to select the Concierge subscription and make sure you are in the correct directory - see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/support/faq?pivots=sandbox
- You need to sign into Learn to be able to activate a Sandbox
Can you provide the URL of the exercise you are following- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/certifications/exams/ms-500
Trying to do any of these learning paths, and I am signed in. I'm several modules into the first one and it isn't giving a sandbox option, but it is giving a lot of links to Azure Portal that result in me not having access due to not paying for Azure, and not having been able to start a sandbox because no button is present. I see nowhere mentioning a Concierge subscription.

This was the first exercise, links to the portal, no sandbox mention.- OK it looks like there are no sandboxes on the Microsoft 365 learn modules like there are on the Azure modules.
It looks like these modules https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/create-configure-manage-identities/ were written for instructor led training where you are provided with lab environment and tenant.
Your options are:
1) Create a Microsoft 365 E3/E5 trial
2) Sign up for a Microsoft 365 Developer https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/dev-program https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/microsoft-365/enterprise/office-365-e5
