How to access to cdx.transform.microsoft.com ?
Hello, I'm trying to access to cdx.transform.microsoft.com with partner account, but getting failed. I'm not sure what's my wrong, I have not enroll Action Pack, may it is reason? Thank you!
I got the following instructions from Andrew from the Microsoft Transform Program support. It took some time but they really helped me out on this. I hope this helps you.
“The administrator of the tenant needs to add the partner center access explicitly as a service principle to the tenant. To get the partner center service principle propagated, run the following commands:
1. install-module AzureAD
2. connect-azuread -tenantid [Your tenant ID]
3. New-AzureADServicePrincipal -AppId 4990cffe-04e8-4e8b-808a-1175604b879f
Once this has been completed, please try consenting.”

Thanks for the shared information. It worked. This should be documented somewhere because many partners can faced the same situation.
- One more hint,
I found a way to get the CDX portal open on my PC. To make the CDX website work, you need to trigger Microsoft MFA in the same browser before accessing the CDX portal. CDX portal somehow does not like third-party MFA (like DUO) or implied MFA (like trusted Azure joined PC) but not generate an additional MS MFA prommpteither.
The MS MFA can be triggered using some Azure admin features; for example, in the PIM, when one pick and requests the privileged role. Once Azure PIM requests additional authorisation (e.g. MS MFA with Authenticator), I was able to access CDX portal. You mush use the same browser window to open CDP portal; CDX no longer reports authorization errors.
You need to repeat the process each time. Good luck!
P.S. I just found that accessing My Sign-Ins | Security Info | Microsoft.com https://mysignins.microsoft.com/security-info forces MFA and makes CDX connect.
