Cant access admin panel
Hi Everyone, I have done something really silly and I don't mind if I get a laugh or two, I have locked myself out of our two admin accounts due to both had 2FA on and the phone that the notifications went to sadly has been reformated without the person checking with me first, I have an E5 Licence but without being able to access the admin page I can't access support to get this resolved 😞 - I'm kind of stuck and at the moment even though we only have a few licenses (mix of E5and F3) Feeling really silly about this but if anyone has an idea of how I can resolve this I would be really grateful JoeJoeRNZSep 04, 2025Copper Contributor839Views0likes3CommentsPeople Settings Appear in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center
The Org Settings section of the Microsoft 365 admin center has a new People Settings section where you can choose properties for the Microsoft 365 profile card instead of using PowerShell. The kicker is that the old method of using Exchange custom properties to customize what appears on the profile card is being replaced with standard Entra ID properties. A migration is needed, and it’s easily done with PowerShell. https://office365itpros.com/2025/09/04/microsoft-365-profile-card-2/32Views0likes1CommentNeed assistance: Unable to Remove GoDaddy as Partner/Reseller and Unfederate the Domain actus.law
I have been trying to resolve this issue for nearly four weeks, and been through many troubleshooting sessions and telephone calls with Microsoft Support, but this seems extremely complicated: The domain actus.law is owned by the Danish law firm Actus Law, and is registered with GoDaddy as the domain registrar. The Microsoft 365 tenant was originally created and federated by GoDaddy, who acted as the delegated administrator (via DAP/GDAP). On advice from a Microsoft Sales Advisor, Actus Law purchased a Microsoft 365 Business Standard license directly through Microsoft connected to the above tenant with the goal of managing the tenant independently through the Microsoft 365 Admin Center — without GoDaddy's involvement, beyond being the registrar. After the purchase it was impossible to manage users/licenses/domains in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center, as the domain is federated and therefore all requests always get redirected to GoDaddy. It was therefore not possible to verify the domain or create any users. I contacted Microsoft Support on 8 May, where I was told that the way forward was to delete current DNS records and remove GoDaddy's partnership privileges in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center. We therefore deleted all GoDaddy's delegated administrative privileges (GDAP/DAP) on 8 May 2025 and requested GoDaddy to end the reseller relationship. After this the support agent closed the ticket. This was handled through Support Ticket #2505081420003154. GoDaddy afterwards confirmed that they have removed all rights and that the domain is free to be unfederated. However, this did not solve the problem, since GoDaddy is still registered as partner and the domain is still federated. Therefore I am not allowed to make any changes and I always get redirected to GoDaddy when trying to manage anything in Microsoft 365 Admin Center. On 9 May I contacted Microsoft Support again and asked to disconnect the tenant from GoDaddy so I can manage everything in Microsoft 365 Support Center. This was under the Support Ticket #2505091420000046. The assigned agent tried during multiple weeks to troubleshoot and fix the problem with PowerShell commands using both MsolService and Microsoft.Graph, but always ended up getting access errors or insufficient privileges to perform the change in authorization from federated to managed. It has also not been possible to delete GoDaddy as partner. On 20 May I was asked to contact GoDaddy again to make sure that they had removed themselves as partner, and I got the following confirmation in writing from GoDaddy's Advanced Technical Support: "The Microsoft 365 organization for actus.law is no longer associated with GoDaddy. You can now reach out to Microsoft directly and receive support for a password reset for any admin user you need to access, or any other support issues. NOTE: If the domain is still set to use GoDaddy’s email login system you will need to ask Microsoft to “un-federate” the domain." On 21 May I explained GoDaddy's response in an email to the assigned agent, but now the agent simply stopped responding to my emails. I sent a reminder after 5 days, but did not get any response. On 28 May I called Microsoft Support and was assigned a new agent. That agent told me to contact GoDaddy, as it seems they still have visible GDAP, and only GoDaddy can remove that. Then the agent closed the ticket. I tried to contact GoDaddy afterwards, but they told me that the reseller relationship/GDAP was completely removed from GoDaddy's side on 8 May 2025 and all changes have propagated. However, since all GDAP/DAP had already been deleted at that point (which was done on 8 May, see above under number 4), GoDaddy could not remove it in Microsoft's systems according to the normal procedure so it is correctly reflected in the Microsoft 365 tenant. So they asked me to contact Microsoft Support again and explain the situation. WHAT I WANT TO ACHIEVE: I want GoDaddy completely removed as partner/administrator from my tenant and the domain actus.law to be "managed" and not "federated", so I can manage everything directly in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center and use my Microsoft 365 Business license. CURRENT STATUS: GoDaddy says everything has been removed on their end and that only Microsoft can now unfederate the domain. Microsoft Support says GoDaddy still needs to remove DAP/GDAP — but I cannot see their DAP/GDAPS anywhere in the Admin Center, and GoDaddy says they’ve already done it. Does anyone have an idea of what to do in this situation? I would appreciate any help, I feel completely stuck, and I am unable to set up any users or mails 😒EronErgonSep 02, 2025Copper Contributor119Views0likes2CommentsRemove domain and recover licence.
I have a very small business (sole property) and I recently hired a sales employee. I bought a business basic licence with the firm Combell that hosts my website and basic mailboxes. When activating 365 I was asked to make a tenant and link my domain with that tenant. I now want to go back to the basic mailboxes as It don't need the 365 environment. Combell states that I can't do this when I want to use the same domain..This seems strange to me as I own the domain, not Microsoft. Kind regards KrisitgevancoSep 02, 2025Copper Contributor87Views0likes3CommentsUnable to whitelist quarantined emails
We have an email that is being constantly quarantined from a webform. The email comes from the email of the web form server, but is spoofing an internal address in our tenant by design. The email keeps getting blocked, and nothing we've tried as far as transport rules, whitelist additions, etc has been able to discernably affect this. There is a option to create a tenant allow list entry but the maximum duration is 45 days. We need a way to reliably whitelist an email indefinitely.jmcomSep 01, 2025Copper Contributor41Views0likes1CommentChange default recipient for default security alerts
In the Office 365 Security admin center, under Alerts > Alert policies, all of Microsoft's default alert policies are configured to send to "TenantAdmins". I would like to change this default recipient address for all existing and future default alerts, without having to manually change it on each alert. I have found that you cannot modify these alerts using PowerShell. But is there a way to set the default recipient for default alerts? I haven't been able to find one.SolvedTed SinclairAug 20, 2025Copper Contributor14KViews0likes3CommentsEmails from our custom domain ends up in quarantine
Hello, I have an issue with emails coming from one of our custom domains being detected as phishing for identity theft reason. We've got the main domain on Microsoft 365, let's call it: "domain-example.com" and the second domain on IONOS : "domainexample.com" When we receive emails from this second domain it is detected as phishing since it is a domain name very close to our main domain, therefore those emails are placed into quarantine. How do I resolve this issue? Can I indicate Microsoft 365 that this second domain is owned by our company, therefore the emails coming from this domain aren't identity theft attempts? I found how to add a domain on Microsoft 365 Admin Center but I don't know what are the consequences of this action, I want to keep my domain on IONOS and send emails from their web server. All I want is to stop emails from our company to end up into quarantine or spam folder. Thank you.CB-MDAug 18, 2025Copper Contributor26Views0likes0CommentsError importing Project Accelerator for Project on the web in power apps
